Yes chuck a few bits in and you’re at 300 quid (maybe GST factor also)Quote:

$8k - 15k depending on options, spec and km seems the normQuote:

So some 18" Tuffant Kimberley wheels and Yokohama tyres.
I ordered 6, but one wheel got separated and is on an extended 2 month + holiday in Oz somewhere. TNT are blaming flooding delays... I hope it turns up soon.... Love the wheels I have received though!

3am start for a quick jaunt to Lower Light to shoot in a comp.
Finished shoot at 2pm and then went to Adelaide to drop off a car fridge before turning around and heading for home.
Back in the driveway at 7pm with 900km completed - as expected a smooth and enjoyable run.
I put together a lovely magnetic reversing camera using a gimbal mount, nice UVC web cam with a vari-focal manual lens and WIFI adapter box. I had intended to plonk this on the tail-gate above the towball to give me a comprehensive view as I hitched the caravan. I had 2 terminal issues which identify this plan as a loser. One is the carplay box in my car uses the same channel as the WIFI adapter, so as soon as I start the car the comms gets laggy and choppy (not what you want when you're reversing toward a bloody big drawbar.
Can anyone point out the second "duh!" in my plan?
Non-magnetic tailgate?Quote:
