Ah very nice, I will look forward to having a look at it  

I sniff industrial espionage afoot here!!!   Take great care Nick - I'd suggest a cammo covering  Next we'll be seeing D5s with the same setup   

Wassa D5?

Sorry Mark, I forgot you're a Jap man now   D5 = Discovery 5   

Sorry, don't do discoveries, nasty cheap wannabe range rovers

Not a very nice thing to say. There are a lot of Disco owners on the Rally............

True, still don't like them though.
And most of the rally crew are thick skinned enough not to give a monkies what i think, so i doubt they'll be too offended!


I always used to say that id rather do 'the mac' in Jeep rather than a diesel disco. The next year i took a diesel disco and it blew up. I rest my case.

Best get a Mits then Mark ....

Is ok, i have a nissan and a toyota and a range rover for best.
The 110 will be up for sale when i get round to it

Pleased to anounce that the trusty L200 completed the Mac without missing a beat.
As did Mr Avo's Z6 "other half", Pete in his Delica.

    

Onwards now with a few more mods in time for June.

Well done Nick for a) competing again, b) amount raised & c) total amount the challenge has raised,
Sympathies for having to endure the rally in an inferior machine but well done on finishing !
  

I hear a roumer that the 'trusty' l200 has become incontinent?

Mark - A hearing issue no doubt!   Not  incontinent it's 'on the continent'

Then that doesn't say much for Nick's navigation (or navigator) as it was mentioned whilst on the mac

I wouldn't question Lyn's navigating - we've got another piece of Mac glassware that proves her navigation isn't so bad.

As to the trusty L200 being incontinent ...... recon steering box only fitted a couple weeks ago has a leak    

Always said we should have more night nav stuff on the rally, maybe lyn's keen on carrots?

Night nav across Europe - bring it on .....

Wait and see

Hello, see the value of shares in the led light bar suppliers have just rocketed.

I love night nav code board sections, but i can see them being a bit of a prob abroad

What makes you think they'll be a problem abroad??

50 motors with 1,000.000 candlepower lights crawling round the forests at night.
Theyll think its Close Encounters all over again

Ha, yea, never thought of it like that   

If it happens in France, who can foresee the outcome?   

Whats the worst that could happen
