    Could be in the family way again.

    We went out for dinner with Scallops and Kat Woman last night, after a lovely time there is serious belief that the family is about to expand. I am seriously considering purchasing a Td5, 130 dual cab.

    The car trailer behind the bus will be a long one. Maybe a certificate to become a road train !

    Tch tch tch! At your age, you should be looking for comfort and style!
    Mind you, I brought up the subject of a 130 with Julie the other day - didn't get very far, but maybe a thin little crack to insert a wedge into.

    Hi Don, I already have comfort and style, but through the week I was pondering an overhead console to accommodate some extra gauges etc.. As I don't want to butcher the HSE and any mod would have to look "at home" and be reversible, I was thinking a Deefer might be the go. To my mind Defenders are pure function before form. I should be able to make a reasonably comfortable yet practical vehicle by combining D1 bits into a 130.

    You may get some ideas from this. A lotto win away.

    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    A bit OTT for my plans, Bob.

    I've got an HSE I could use as a parts car.

    Check out Strangy's 130, IMO the best 130 I've had the pleasure of checking out.
    Comfy inside, TD5 and auto, an all round rock solid, brilliant tourer build.

    I might drive a Disco now but I'm still a Deefer driver at heart. Could be in the family way again.
