Gaz,
You definitely have a way with words mate, I'm still sore from laughing so hard at Cheeky's realisation that D1's are going to the crusher in vast numbers. Won't be long until it's Cheeky's turn I feel.

Cheeky has been muttering on lately that she has been feeling some disturbances in the force.
She has always been a bit paranoid since Darth Torquit pointed his Range Rover at her from over the hill and made her swivel housing leak.
For those who are new to the forum, Cheeky my D1, has for a long time, been relating her theories about how Range Rovers are wicked; and corrupt anybody who drives one, turning them into an evil Darth Lord bent on ridding the galaxy of Discoveries with a special focus on D1's
Yes of course I listen to my cars, don't you ????
That winning noise when you turn the steering is your car talking to you, she is saying that she would like some Lucas Stop Leak in her power steering - please.
If you listen closer she will say that it is almost time to fix the leaks.
If you talk back nicely and let her know that her leak has slowed heaps, then she might agree to go further without breaking down.
Any rate, the current moaning began last week when we went over to Cheeky's friends place. We pulled up in the drive way and Cheeky announced that she felt a cold shiver, like all the D1's had suddenly cried out in pain and were silenced.
Cheeky called out over the fence to Harry's V8 D1 to come out and play - There was no reply - just an eerie silence.
She timidly call out to Harry's other D1,
I looked at her, even thought its a diesel; a D1 is a D1 said Cheeky.
The only reply came from Harry's shortie series 2, who explained to Cheeky that all the D1's don't live here anymore and she thinks they all went to the crusher.... Cheeky was mortified.
The s2 said that she could not come out and play because Harry had not fixed her front diff.
Then Cheeky saw this...
She was inconsolable
Then she saw this
Now she is convinced that the Jeeps have formed an alliance with the Range Rovers to destroy D1's
Cheeky has now learned that the109 has been turned; by not only 1 RRC but by 3, his shed is full of them.
The Trip to the AGM did not help, because she was sad missing all her D1 friends. Only stupid fenders and fancy D3 and 4 she kept muttering, I will be the only D1 soon...
I have tried to console her, I explained to her that Torquit has moved far away to a Pacific Island and can not point a her anymore. She just retorted that there is still Darth Fluffy.
She is worried that there will soon be a Darth 109
Cheeky has been so scared that she spat a uni out of her front drive shaft on the way back from Brisbane on Wednesday and refuses to leave the yard.
Gaz,

Harsh words Eric!
Gaz, does cheeky know whats going on in the Presto workshop? I'd keep it quiet, as news of another D1 thats soon to move on could force her to drive to the crusher herself!
1994 D110 Tdi - 1957 88" Series 1 - New Project (due to commence 2056)
What a shame, one less D1 on the road I don't think anyone going to miss it
Seems that former D1 owners have become Defender owners from the looks of things, that's okay if you like to be squashed up on the door/B pillar and you cop a feel from the handbrake every time you hit a bump
Trav
I have no dramas with the door/B pillar, must be a build related thing

lol, poor Cheeky.
I think Guy has just purchased a friend for her..
Oh no that's right, I remember now, he is scrapping that too
I rule!!!
2.4" of Pure FURY!!!
Cheeky should not be worried.
Whilst the D3's and D4's may appear be young and fancy, they are still strong in the "force" and, inspired by legends of the D1 knights, willing to continue the fight against the evil RR empire.
Fear not Cheeky..... we will learn and grow stronger in the "force" guided by our D1 masters.
