    How good are these cars!

    Just took my broken fog light out untill I can get a replacement. Broke it trying to bounce up a mud bank!

    The fog lights have got vent tubes standard!

    Talk about designed for off road!

    Very impressed.

    I always laugh when publications like 4wd Action talk about all the things you should immediately do to a new 4x4 to make it ready for off-road.

    upgrade the suspension components
    raise the suspension
    upgrade the tyres
    fit axle breathers
    protect alternator if its mounted low
    snorkel if its low
    replace front and rear bumpers as they restrict angles

    Apart from tyres and possibly a snorkel, we're pretty well covered.

    thats because most people who read publications like 4x4 action dont drive landies.
