Hey Matt,
I can understand completely, the GU is a boring ride BUT the Duramax will make it enjoyable:twisted:.
Won't have to do any mods to drivetrain, and you have space for the chillens etc.
Make sure we get pics and the whole story here please!, don't forget about us:)
Congrats on the mice, number 3 soon:o ...already??:o
JC

Cheers Mr Cooper, next one has just started baking, more to come apparently:eek:Quote:

Tis a shame, the 120" was built with Russia in mind, but then babies came along, life priorities change and it has become not so practical, to be honest it just sits idle:(
So I need something to drive, but I can't have something normal, never have, and 600HP 392388newtonkilometres of torque seems to tickle my fancy, unfortunately at his time something A/C equipped (I hate A/C:mad:) numerous seats and relatively quiet and with decent range needs to be accuired/built
Time restraints add to the fact that I need not have umpteen projects unused nor will they be used practically for the next 5 years
Oh the shame in it all:D
Unfortunately, It is not wife friendly, can't drive stick! so auto it must be, land rover cab, not so much love for, so one ponders a few thingsQuote:

Matt,
Just letting you know - proud of ya!
Keep up the good work!
We all know that the 'dark side' would have been you buying a stock standard tarago ;)
A goo with a stonking donk aint no dark side! The side be side conversion will make it the right price too!
Congrats on the new pooglet, keep enjoying life and be dad to them kids!
When you decide to travel north in a few years - bring your tribe and Ill look after you in Cookers!
Steve
Or a "vatican van" ;););)
Sounds to me like you're trying to talk yourself away from Rovers, if you don't leave because you hate them you'll be back, guarantee it :) , don't even bother with the Patrol, just put the hard yeards in on the P38a, you'll be happier when it's done :)
....you don't have a wife and family i take it Will? , let alone almost 4 kids under 6!Quote:
