So its not legal then.

Not legal

Plenty of non legal bull bars running around, I would be prepared to just roll the dice.

I wonder if you could do it as an individual one off ?

I might contact NRMA tomorrow and see what they say regards Vehicle Insurance; a long shot maybe, but if you don't ask the question you won't get the definitive answer.

The bar will need a compliance sticker/plate says it complies with the ADRs for that particular brand and model of vehicle. As well as asking the NRMA (you will get various answers based on how you ask the question - ask "am I covered if I fit a bar that is illegal and does not comply with the ADRs for the type of vehicle". Also you need to check with the RMS - ask the same question and I know what the answer will be in both cases.

I went through this with the the fitting of a D3 bar on a RRS - basically same car and the D3 bar goes straight on but the bar has not been complied for the RRS as it has for the D3 - not legal at all with various warnings from insurers and rego authorities if fitted.

Some have taken the risk and fitted it and most probably not have an issue - I considered it but decided that for me the risks were too great. Individual decisions I guess.

Thanks Garry !

I have been seeing more L320 Sports with the OL bull bars lately around town; and was wondering if they had done it on an individual basis or not. Funny one the cars I see daily is in the AG's staff carpark So it's owners risk then; bugger !


Did Land Rover have to get the soft Factory Brush Bar compliance for Australian Models ? as there are few around on 06-09 Vogues !!!

I swear I saw this vehicle coming home on the Monaro Highway this evening ! I couldn't get the best look because of the storm, but it certainly looked like this bulbar. It didn't appear to be a ARB or OL bar from what I could see in the rain.
It was a Blue Vogue and the bar was painted black, coincidence ???

I would have loved to speak to the Lady driver, but that was never going to happen !!!

This bar was mooted a while back, but then nothing; anyone know any more ?
