And a big thumbs up for the old bloke in the series towing a boat that would out do the QEII, he was on the princess hwy heading towards lakes enterance from orbost doing about 15kmh.....

Are you sure he was towing something.....

About 30km north of Cooma on Monday arvo, I came across the Professor (the bloke who spoke was on stage with the results of the trivia quiz) with his 300Tdi Disco and Series in tow and they were stopped beside the road. I had a look, checked the symptoms, and said "This has blown a head gasket".

I rang JustinC who confirmed my suspicions.

I told the Prof to call a flatbed.

my mate went past a disco towing a series one on a trailer at bredbo with the bonnet up he was gunna stop and tell him to tow the disco home with the series one

I know the Fenner's had trouble around Traralgon.
They had to take the swb series1 off the trailer and tow the lwb the rest of the way home...Just as the storms hit on Monday night

Don't know of these, but do know of a TD5 130 with a camper trailer heading home to Perth from Cooma which is now on a truck loaded at Adelaide, the 2 occupants now on tonights flight back home.

I bet the towies cant wait for LR 70th

If we had that many rice burners in one place some would fall over for sure.
