    How many towns of 4000 people

    who are also over 1000kms by road from the nearest Land Rover dealer (on a road that is impassable 6-8 months of the year!) would have:

    1 X Series 2
    2 X Series 3
    11 X 110 ( 1 County, 3 X 300tdi, 3 X TD5, 3 X Puma - soon to be 4 Pumas in Jan)
    2 X 130
    8 X D1
    6 X D2
    and a RR

    as their Land Rover contingent?

    Thought it was a decent list when I added it up!
    Cheers, Dale

    That is an impressive list.....would almost fill the car park at the Golf Club

    Pity Gove Motors aren't authorised Land Rover Service Centres any more...

    Also pity the last mechanic who was at Gapuwiyak had to go back to S.A. He was a Land Rover man through & through and even had his Puma shipped up. He left in August due to unexpected family committments, but wants to return in a few years if possible. A nicer & more dedicated bloke you would hard pressed to find.

    Think you've left at least a dozen Landies of that list that I can think of.

    There's at least 4 Counties in town and also at least 4 RR's, there's a D2a as well in the Disco list.

    Was hoping you would help out 2a I included as a 2 if we are both thinking of the one that is new to town.

    Yes, well Caspa has still to prove itself....and hopefully it will do that without any problems....and fingers crossed, won't need too much help from the mechanic.

    After all, this will be its first Wet season....

    Hopefully, it will serve Sharon & Alfred for many years to come.

    Not sure if I'm in the count of the 3 X 300tdi? if not +1
    Pitty about the non-existance of a landy specialist!
    wouldn't by any chance know anything of the quality of the panel shop?

    Yes Paul is correct.

    There are at least 6 white Tdi Defenders in town and one white, one green and one "unique" County as well as at least 2 Td5 130's, 2 DC Tdi's, a SIII and 2 SII (1 might be a 2a). Now I'll still have to think about the Disco's etc.
