Not sure if a decision has been made... Saw the following x2 examples in the city yesterday. Apparently kegs in the back and dispensers coupled on the outside.

More rubber than metal with a 4 speed manual box. There’s a few coming up on a surplus auction in a few months. (Ex. Cargo and ambulance variants). Will gladly store it on your behalf Image

I promise this is my last spamming post on your thread. But Land Rovers are so much fun to discuss if you are not the poor bastard that owns it.

Will gladly store it (and commute in it to ensure all parts are in working order) while you select your skill set :mrgreen: https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/w ... ation-list

"But Land Rovers are so much fun to discuss if you are not the poor bastard that owns it."

I've had a few. I have a tame indie as a mate. He's not so hot when it comes to communication and feedback, but he does know his Landies. He also is a cheap bastard, and he knows I'm one too. The real answer with Landies (and with Jeeps I might add, and I also have another mate who is a Jeep indie) is not to buy a lemon in the first place........

ANYHOO............

Just found some nice M57 conversions done on the TJ and the Patrol. An M57 engine will cost R25k.

Some tuners get 300kW and 600Nm out of those engines with VERY little work.

Alternatively, going old school, I could use an OM605 or 606.
