Oh well. That won’t work :)
I’m leaving Brisbane Sunday morning to be back in Whyalla Monday afternoon.

Was a unique Xmas day. 3 time zones (SA, QLD and NSW)
I arrived home at 15:15 Boxing Day, gave the RRS a quick wash to get rid of the Dragon flies, Locusts and other dead creature splats!
Average speed for entire run 92km/h
Average fuel burn 7.9l/100km
Good news. Very glad you didn't pop up here: AULRO S O S & Breakdown ONLY!
Back at it……
Just heading to Whyalla airport - destination Adelaide.
Meet a mate (former forum member) for a lift to Tanunda.
Jump into my D4 and bring it home - 4hrs.
It’s currently 43°c here, so a Dual AC D4 is a nice place to be [emoji41]
All LRs safely home [emoji41]
Tomorrow the vehicle (now named Paddington) receives Tint treatment and some electronic love from Big Jon in the way of ECU and Transmission remaps.
When it arrives home I’ll take some pics with the windows sorted (no more fishbowl)
Mrs Tombie is a very happy RRS owner today to say the least.
Tint is on (great work Tint Works Marion) and then off to see Big Jon at his workshop for upgrade flashes to both Engine and Transmission for her this afternoon.
Now on to the rest of the upgrades!

Hey Tomlie - you beat me to it with this car. I really liked the car and thought Danny was pretty straight up. Good luck with it, I’ll be watching your stories closely on the ‘one that got away’ cheers
