It's been fun

[russell.huffer]

It's been a fun four years owning my Patrol and visiting this forum but like all good things this has come to an end.
Patrol sold and replaced with a Land Cruiser, just needed something a bit newer.

Thanks for the help over the years.


Kind regards


Russell.

Don't have to leave... Just need to keep us up to date with the LandCruiser and photos wouldn't go amiss.
Hang around for the bants.

Nothing to do to it really, other than all terrain tyres and install a cb as I only really use it for green laning.

Kind regards

Keep us updated on any issues.

We have a members other vehicles section that you can post in whilst your membership is current - very useful I have found when looking for a change of vehicle. Always good to read of experience with other makes especially as Terranos are getting long in the tooth.

Based on our previous ownership of a Santa Fe Petrol for instance I would avoid another Hyundai if it was over 7 years old - ours not unusually was leaking oil from every possible place, steering rack, sump etc, broken springs, ABS issues etc. It was very cheap for a reason I guess. It was becoming a money pit before it was written off.

if you haven't already, I bet you a tenner you'll get someone ask if that's an Northern Ireland plate :doh

When I brought my Terrano it had RUI 3686

 

[russell.huffer]

Funny I was looking at two Land Cruisers both black both same year, mileage etc and the other one was in Northern Ireland, so had an irish plate on it.

RUI 8163 is a plate I have had on many of my cars, it makes the car ageless, it is very loosely personal based on RU being the first two letters of my name and the remaining I 8163 with a bit of a shuffle gives my date of birth 8/11/63

Thanks Mr K it is a step up from the Patrol, centre and rear lockers, downhill control, crawl control, multi terrain select, camaras all round, height adjustable suspension, just got to fit my cb and will be ready to green lane.

Only concern is colour as black is going to show the scratches.

Kind regards
