Thanks for the warning Shocked

But don't stress, we never drink while we are discussing serious topics like LR toys.

BTW, where is Bruce?

Waving

Heine

On the topic of waving - you know what it is like driving a Defender or older model. Well now that we have the D3 my wife waves at all the other D3's when she drives it - with very little reaction - I would say 1 out of 10 would "attempt" something like a wave. But she goes ons step further and waves at a all the Defenders - much to my childrens's disgust - the result - 9 out of 10 would reciprocate ! - the others are to busy taking a corner.

Back in the Defender we wave at new D3's - the reaction - "WHAT THE F#CK WAS THAT ???"

Heine - sorry bud, I was probably talking on the phone and driving with my eyes up my Censored

Yes, indeed, it is fitted. Very Happy

Have a look:




Also, see what you can expect when you go to fill up:

Shocked
The main tank was about 1/4 full

Clearance

Baben

Will check it out today at Baron. Seems like clearance is improved by removal of the two plates between spare wheel and exhaust pipes ?
Will you have your Takla airjack in the vehicle - would like to check it out

BJD - this is only for the Diesel at the moment. It is NOT APPROVED by Land Rover, and will probably never be, seeing as it removes the spare. which is apparently an important part of the rear crumple zone.

Deon - yes the jack is in the back seat Sad

After seeing the Front Runner airjack, I would probably prefer their version - it has an integral carry bag, and has all the same features as the Takla, and is kind of rectangular, which looks like it would be a bit less prone to bending in the middle like the Takla seems to do.

FR still don't have bungs though. I have told them TFC will supply some of his Smile

I will have the Front Runner airjack there too, so we can compare. Anyone who wants a Takla for a good price, speak to me quick

How do I fill up the Front Runner tank? Does the tank have a separate filler like the Long Ranger or is the tank always filled up together with main tank thru one common filler?

Thanks & Best regards
