Not me.

Is your mate on the forum?

He must be a top bloke then, eh? ;)

I was at the Bendigo swapmeet on the weekend. Saw quite a few Landrovers.
Of note, a grey 130 crew cab with a nice camper on the back, a Series 1, and a Series 3 Stage 1 that looked very used but still going. The Stage 1 was the same colour as mine. I quite liked it.

Don't you have some cars to run off the road?

I was there too. Have had a word with the 130 bloke over the past couple of years at Bendigo and also at the Ballarat swap. That camper top cost him the best part of $50,000 and was imported from the states. The Series I only comes out to the Bendigo Swap and he has been going there for many years, it's powered by a Holden engine. The Series 3 well that's another story....

Spoke with the fellow with the S1.
What's the story with the Stage 1?

I was told he makes the trip from Maffra every year to sell at Bendigo.:o By the look of the landy I reckon that's a big ask.

Optimism being an essential state of mind for true Land Rover tragics. :p

Mine looks almost as bad and I've been further than Maffra.

One is always lucky to drive a Landrover.
