And the issue that my washer bottle is next to the winch and behind the winch is my water to air heat exchanger, I will just keep pondering on it. Drivers side has 110mm between winch and bar, would be quite a move across.Quote:

Having no sharp edges will be legal too as Behind point of first contact :)

Speeding generally leads to problems down the track, which come back to haunt you later and slow you down in ways you don't expect.
On those so called holidays I sometimes allow myself, I can drive for anywhere between 3000 - 4500 or so klms .. generally at about 80-90k/h.
My reasoning is that I'm on holiday and almost certainly to get away from the rat race, with every agro idiot doing my head in .. so I'm in go slow mode in a kind'a deliberate manner!
Getting to a destination half an hour sooner over a 10 hour period is meaningless!
Some of us have **** to do, even on our holidays.
Some of us do cannonball runs because we have much to do and less time to do it in.
One man's holiday shouldn't interrupt another mans working day.

Half hour over 10 hours? What pace are you talking?
I'm talking sitting on/around the posted limit at night. Compared to 80km/h that's an additional 30km for every hour driven... or 300km... a significant difference.
It also leads to less fatigue if the distance must be covered.
You're also assuming I do this just for fun (I do that quite a bit admittedly) but I also do it for work...
We don't all live in suburbia.
One such trip had us do Whyalla to Nullabour and back in a single run...
That's 1,800+km and took just on 16 hours...
An average of 112km/h..
At your 80km/h we would have been behind the wheel for 22.5 hours. [emoji15]
And at 80km/h, would add almost an extra day each way for us travelling to Melrose. ;)Quote:

Speedo said 110kmh,GPS 107kmh.I happily sat on the indicated 110kmh,I wasn't in any sort of hurry.
Twice got the blue lights turned on and a big thumbs up from the officer steering,some sort of a new way of the plods thanking you for not speeding????
