Not the first time you've made that statement, I would have said a crawler.

very good, hope you have a good few days,don't forget to post some pic's of Pogg in his winter coat

Now that you've had Pogg on the road for a while, do you have any idea of MPG? What does Pogg weigh, and auto or manual?

Yes,about 25 mpg,and that is giving it a bit of stick when i feel like it.Just to show off and outdrag some supposed "hot"cars.Weighs exactly 1 ton less than the RRC it is based upon.That is why it performs so well,the power to weight ratio changed so much.It is legally registered as a 1tonne ute.Would have to be lead or gold ingots because of the(lack of)room.Auto my good man,because as i said on another thread today,Disco's and RRc's in auto seem normal.but a defender feels somewhat decadent.

So you have the same mech spec as me but due to the Jenny Craiging you have improved on my economy number by two.

You big kid. I generally drive in an economical manner, as opposed to 'for economy'. Round town I refuel at 500 km, rarely seeing the low fuel light on, on a run, cruising at 95-100 k iaverage 23 MPG.
