    Its Landed

    Just got a call from Land Rover in Brisbane, the ship is in 3 weeks early, not sure how that happens, they must have dodged the pirates, maybe they were just being conservative in the first place but by next weekend I should have my new and first Defender I think that makes me a Virgin, I did not even test drive it, call me an idiot but figured it didn't matter, I will mold to it. I will get some pics up once the keys are in my hands!!

    Thanks for all your advice!!

    You are not the only idiot to buy without a test drive. Did the same when I bought my TD5. I figured it had to be better than the series 3 I had and I loved that, so I couldn't lose could I?

    Have fun with her mate, you are bound to love it.
