Well, I did do 2400miles last week going to Austria and back - and over 1000miles at the end of February to Paris and back.

But in truth it does sometimes feel I live in it!

well been busy of late with the disco, havn't done all the pics as yet but as a starter..

used it to take my RRC to the grave yard in the sky :(
decided to update all the 501 bulbs to led's, this led to a minor shock as to how many 501's the D3 has, currently up to 15 of them :surprise:
fitted dog guard as we now have a poochy
got around to installing the CB
fitted rear ladder, getting onto roof rack was a bit of a pain
and fianlly, although it's still in the box i have a mantec raised air intake

RRC to grave yard in the sky

dog guard, no piccy of it fitted yet :oops:
Image

and of course the bitch

also we had a new member at the 4x4 response group, he's been coming in a pug estate, but this month he actually turned up in his 4x4.... now this i want :whistle:
