First off-roading in the new D3

[gghaggis]

Ah, it's been a while, but finally took the new D3 out for a bit of a play last weekend.

Unfortunately, my wife's nephew drowned his Hilux, so I spent most of the morning recovering him and then towing him all the way back to the city, so this is the only bit I managed to do

Also went down to the Coastal 4x4 ramp day (becoming an annual event) and posted 36th out of 64 competitors. However, I _think_ I was the 1st stock standard vehicle - see the thread at [ame=http://www.perth4x4.net/forum/showthread.php't=28547]Coastal 4x4 Ramp day - Perth4x4.net Forums[/ame]

Nice Disco mate!

I am looking at a D3 to buy
What is involved with getting that sort of clearance?
Cheers

Looks good Gordon. I like the look of the LR options you've got but the colour-coded bumper and guards I don't. Not that you have a choice of course...

Thanks all - it was good to be behind the wheel again!
Yes, I've fitted my swappable sensor rods to the car - didn't use them in the ramp contest, as they reduce the articulation by a small but significant amount.

Richard, see you in Harvey!

Robert, see you in Melb!

Cheers,

Gordon

Can I have more info on the sensor rods please?
