Like I said online meeting minutes would be good so out of area members could attend a virtual meeting, I've been on a few of the Tuff trips with Max and the boys and love it, my car aint up to them though. Can I access the website, with not being a member?Quote:

You can always keep in contact with the members who you like and do your own thing without the anti-LR bull**** :)

There is not that much difference. Have had this discussion with a couple of mechanics and told them what I think of them. I can understand waiting for parts from a non LR workshop and having to seek advice or a manual, but to not even take a look shows huge ineptitude.
I said to a Toyota mechanic who told me he did not work on Land Rovers any more. Yep, that would be right simple cars for simple people and worked on by simpletons. Can not tackle anything that takes a bit of thought.

The Sydney-based RR club allows only RRs and Discos into the club and on club trips.Quote:

I asked him why he wanted to join a club so far away and his reply was the LROC in Newcastle is crap, there are only two land rovers, and the other land rover owners club is fully of people who dont want any more members, and their idea of a trip is drive to a camp ground have champagne and bikkies and go home.

I would like to join the newcastle landrover club only to use the lease they have on land up in the barrington area as this is available to members and is a good spot but the thought of the bagging from the jap boys turned me off so maby will just have t settle with aulro as it works for me and im happy here and the invites to do lroc trips are great .
As i said in the other thread about clubs i dont mind goin bush with any other sort of forby as long as we all get along and no one acts like a goose i can take the usual baging if stuck or in a jam but when its constant and demeaning that's when i will fire up and get agro especialy when its cause i drive a rangie :D :D :D
as for the newcastle landrover club i think they need a name change or a mass influx of landrover owners to join up ....
There nothing wrong with banter, but bagging and rubbishing a person for what they drive is not on IMO. I always hang crap on pootrols and so forth but it's never meant in a mean spirited way and always for a laugh. I expect a bit back and it's all good.Quote:
