Picture of wheels from a few weeks ago, V spokes from a RRS. Still have the Duratrac tyres though.

Mine went to work, and then back home. I also found out how little impact £15 of diesel has on the gauge. Payday can't come soon enough.
I have priced up the parts for it's next installment of maintenance. I'm going to go lie down and cry for a bit now... haha

Okay got s2a to drive out of garage and reverses and drive back in , got roll bar if and tub to be plesently surprised to find the chassis is better than I hoped and only the bad bits I saw need fixed , well the long slog of sanding/stripping down the chassis, axels and fix and replace a footwell and get it all painted / treated begins. Ah the joys of being a landy owner lol oh and I think major achievement was it drove after 13+years sitting unused or checked by previous owners is fab news for me.

Be careful  - some humourless tree-hugger will take offence at that and take a key to your motor :-(

In a similar vein I once peeled a "Property of Hampshire Police" sticker off a traffic cone and stuck it on the vehicle. 3 days later I got a visit and a po-faced lecture...

Drove around Glen Etive as a prop for a photoshoot!  ;) The day started with all 4 brakes binding on but made it by 11 in the end.
