    Whoops

    Talawana Track horror: Couple's 4WD bursts into flames | Daily Mail Online

    I sat next to a paramedic in the "bar" at Newman airport on Wednesday and we got talking. Her parents had just escaped from an incident and she showed me the photos. Come today they turn up in the Daily Fail.

    I notice they don't mention the make or model of the vehicle in the article.

    Chalk one up for the sat phone.

    Lucky! What sort of vehicle - noting the doors have gone. Aluminium? Land Rover?

    Not much left of the old Series Landie in those photos, either.

    I was told it was a brand new 300 series.

    Looks Cruiserish to me.
    Ron, that's not a series, it's a Stage 1 or Defender.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    I can't tell. Looks about one long range fuel tank away from being an ingot.

    Not Defender, look at the windscreen - it's a 2-piece. A Stage 1 is a Series III but with the V8 or 4BD1.

    Grill flush with the front of the wings, still has opening vents below the windscreen.
    I think that makes it a Stage 1, either 3.5 V8 petrol or 3.9 Isuzu diesel.

    I tried to post the picture. There's an hour I'll never get back.

    Yep, flush front panel - probably Stage 1.

    Did you change the picture format, Ron? How jolly clever.
