Well it's happened.
The missus has advised she's laying an egg so Ferocious is going to make room for a Disco. Need the extra room and comfort for mother and baby.
Will keep in touch here for sure and will be looking at bulding a toy rig next year as the Disco will be reserved as mum's bus and tourer only.
Have to say though, love the new truck. Here's a pick.
Cheers

jeez that was a good deal.....
....did they have any decent 80's series?
...yeah Paul, if the spare wheel cover had tweety bird on it you would've keep it would'nt you

No 80's... it's a Land Rover dealership...
If it had tweety bird on the wheel cover I would have given it to to my mate Denis.... to go with his skirt!
But if it had a Marvin the Martian wheel cover saying "Give me space"... I would definately have kept that...

Cheers Andy...
That looks like a beast... give me about 3 years and that's what my Disco will look like.
Just can't spend any more money... wife wants a hous before th baby comes...
If you require finance for the new rig let me know mate!!!!
Although I did get the finance for my rig through the dealer... they were cheeper by about $15 a month and over 5 years thats a lot of dosh...
