  4. Ok someones throwing a punch at you. If your stood behind a curtain and cant see it coming its goin to hurt. If you can see it you can move Still dissagree
  5. Obvioursly you cant go the wrong way down a motorway etc but you think its better for the lads to be at the front of the mog with 70mph traffic passing. The mog giveing a massive blind spot and the noise from road and chipper and only concentrating on someone with a pole saw cutting branches off? So cant see anything coming... Id say it was better for the lads to be feeding a chipper at the back where they turn and walk to the back of the truck to chip so can judge the oncoming traffic and keeping up awareness. Not just hiding behind a mog and thinking alls ok. What happens if a lorry driver goes to sleep and veers off to the left? That would shove your mog a long way and flatten all the lads. Least if they were at the back and aware of whats coming they would have a chance
  6. What sort of money sre these rock machines?

    L200

    Any its one hell of a thirsty bugger! I used to get 300 miles to 75 quid in mine 250 if doing a bit of towing When i bought a navara it would do 400-420 miles to the same amount to fill. Ride was bouncy and hard in my l200 The 4x4 system is vacuum control crap! Little reserviour for vac near to drivers front wheel would rot and not hold vac for 4x4 to work, glad mines gone Sorry
  9. Ive not come from a defender, but i did own a project one a while ago. I had a 2003 l200 an hated it! Got a 54 plate navara and loved it but it let me down got a ranger now not a new one but i love it!
