Default Morning all

Hi.
Another new member here...

I used to have a small patch of forestry and a 4x4 was necessary. There was a Nissan Patrol, a Daihatsu Fourtrak, a series Landrover, and a Disco.

Kids = loss of toys, so they eventually got sold

Long story, but needed another (very low budget) 4x4 and i've ended up with as swb petrol Terrano.

I'm sure i'll be along with plenty of question pretty soon, as it was cheap - so it's correspondingly rough!! Considering the state of it, i'm impressed so far!!

Cheers, Gary

Howdy chap, rust rust and rust, check check and check again, prevention is better than cure, if it's not rusty, stop it getting rusty, the rest is fairly straight forward

What's this about pics I hear?

Hi mate,had petrols for a long time the very low down torque is much better than the TD or the TDi but after 2 to 2.5k rev's the diesels take over, Rick
