    Discos are a poor man's Rangie remeber

    Rangie forever, there is NO SUBSTITUTE

    My Rangie is ready to go. Runs, drives and not broken. Maybe I'm being a bit too soft on it. Hopefully getting a winch for it (not in time for the G4 unfortunatley ), if some bastard doesn't up the bid on ebay I should win it this weekend.

    The pre-trip check should be intersting now we have had some rain in the last couple of days.

    Ever notice how these "rangy" owners have to boost their own image, any other disco/ fender owners think perhaps they have a little bit of insecurity , huh, huh, of course not mentioning any names . Me I just drive a D3 ( for now) nuff said ,

    Regards

    Hi all you guys, I havent been around much due to work and family but cant wait to catch up with some of you on a 4wd run somewhere soon.

    Sorry to hear you are selling the D3 Stevo but a D2 would be the next best thing I guess.

    Goodluck to all on the G4 run and hope to see you all at a meeting soon.

    Cheers
    Noz

    All you guys are a bunch of PUSSIES.

    Driving around in your cars with ABS, TC, ACE, Climate control, Terrain response, Hill descent, ABC, 123, 13 speaker whatevers, Satnav,Navsat whatever you call it.
    I'll put the challenge out to swap cars on road and off road. But I'll tell you now, drive mine on road first to give you a whole new perspective of vehicle wrangling. Then once you have reached your off road destination ( if your lucky) relax and see how you go without your fancy bits. By the way wear long pants if you want to put hot drinks in the cup holder!!!!!!( think about it )

    And for some it has 3 pedals and a lever/handle thingy that makes the windows go up & down how cooooool.

    Tell you what, I will organise a trip to that place at Old Coach road. How about we find a little play area and line all the cars up and have a go at driving all of them around a set course, just to see how they are all set up to suit their owners. In the club in Sydney I was in, we did a similar thing, it can actually be a good learning experiance..

    Who's keen

    PS Hey NOZ did you sell the D1

    Great idea.....i think we start by trying this saturday during our pre night run trip!! Stevo, just round the corner from you so get down there at about 10am (check the trip section) as I'm itching to have a shot of the D3 off road.

    Let the games begin!!

    P.S. Got my competitive brains cells jumping again ..........................i'm thinking annual club event where each car completes a series of challenges where points are deducted the more mods you have etc.................
