Here's my new purchase. It was Range Rover Ron's truck. I'm not too sure whether I'll keep it tho' as it's a bit 'in your face !'  Laughing

I'd intended to buy a standard one & modifiy it gently for off-roading & green-laning so it had a more 'subdued' look to it  Rolling Eyes

I got carried away while my guard was down  Laughing  Embarassed  Smile

Thanks Steve. I am pondering lowering it slightly tho' by getting 16" wheels with 33" tyres - that'd be 1" lower for the diffs - & then taking the spacer out from above the spring which is about 1" for the body. And taking off the roof rack might help too  Laughing

Wonder if I'd get it in a carpark then ?  Confused
