Thread: About to do something silly! ****box rally in a landy?

Ok, so how many Aulro-ians are doing the rally? I'm doing the 2014 one as well.

So that's PSI250, Phil , an me..... Who else.? Going to be a cracking drive!

I'm doing it, Team Pom and a Kiwi..

I should have said that our team name is 'Roll it in Glitter' cause you cant polish a turd, but you can....

Anyhow, cant wait to meet you guys on the voyage. Might have to get an AULRO sticker for the ****box so we can id each other?

Definitely! Would you guys come through Melbourne? or head inland across to radelaide?

haha yeah that name did actually pop out at me, had a chuckle when i saw it.

With 4 aulro related teams and an aulro related support vehicle im beginning to think that landrover owners like a mechanical challenge or something :P

righto, my partners just got off the phone from Land Rover , they have a car for us!
Apparently a '90 Discovery V8 in good order will be ready for us next week, they are giving it the whole going over as part of their sponsorship, photo's will be up as soon as we have a look at it...

Very excited to do the rally , more so in a Land Rover!

Well done, thats a great score!

Very jealous! Let me know if they feel like sponsoring any more landy nuts!

Well, in addition to the above, the Camel will be making the trek, she will be fitted with S3 Army Spring Hangers and Shackles, 200 Tdi'ed up with an Ashcroft High Ratio Transfer which will mean I can junk the Overdrive.

In addition, my Partner will be contesting the Rally with her Team mate. Naturally, her car is also a Land Rover.
Picked her up a '94 Discovery ES V8- twin sunroofs, twin airbags, even the AC works a treat!
Cosmetically Scruffy- will be turned into a mock Camel Disco.. 2 car theme!
Works out well cause all the wheels, tyres etc I will pull off the Camel will just go straight on the Disco, rather than clutter up my yard for the next lifetime
She doesn't know it yet but as soon as the rego's good for another year, the centre muffler's coming out

Is it the camel that needs the gearbox?? Just saw your wanted ad.

I have a series 2 box you can have if that helps? its in Melb though so you'l need to get it up there if you want it.

While im here, shameless plug - If anyone wants to donate please follow this link, any amount is a good amount!
