How's the first few days of ownership been?
Very uneventful, as far as warning messages are concerned. Amazed by how solid everything is. Only been for relatively short drives so far, but I’m off on Saturday for a day out with my 4WD club so I can try it out off road.
Nice! Looking forward to the video. I may be heading up to zig zag area next weekend assuming mine arrives next weekVery uneventful, as far as warning messages are concerned.

We're off to explore Howes Trail in the Yengo National Park, and the Finchley Aboriginal Art area, before finishing at the Wollombi Pub.
I agree. And it wont be too long before we upgrade especially the right hand in australia either, because its just asking to be swiped off by on track scrub. Looks cheap and easy to do though, so of all the things to bust off, it’s a nice bit of sacrificial tinsel.
Actually, looking closely at the photos it appears the mounting is just the regular rubber one that comes with these cat-6 lights as standard. It just kind of seems to sit reasonably well over the factory round recess. Better than I expected them to look anyway.
Good memories Les. As a young RAEME Vehicle Mechanic, in 1988 (I think, possibly earlier) I collected 48-001 new from JRA in Moorebank (Sydney). I drove it back to the workshop of 1 Transport Squadron at Holsworthy where we did some checks on it before it went straight onto a truck to Darwin (?) to be used by you in the Bush Tucker Man series. As per the -001 number plate, this was the first delivery of the 110 Perentie fleet and Army wanted to show it off. I wonder where ex-48-001 is now?
Hi there CK,
Good news, everyone!Well well , from thinking I would have to wait until mid September I have been informed my vehicle is on land , just awaiting some attachments, delivery within a couple of weeks.
I have found you can’t take any notice of the Ineos account - mine has never been accurate. It never showed a build month - it says it’s in production - it actual arrived onshore in Brisbane 28/29 June 2023 and is at the dealers now. I’ve also paid for it and they should have had the money on Mon this week, but still says payment pending.
Ready to join us for some of the tracks on the west coast of Tassie in late September?Well well , from thinking I would have to wait until mid September I have been informed my vehicle is on land , just awaiting some attachments, delivery within a couple of weeks.
I doubt the better half will approve...
When the barra just aren't biting , but the reptiles are
Well you've really got to try hard to go hungry. The last Survival Exercise I did with the Australian Army (162 Recce Sqn up near Cooktown) I actually put on weight would you believe.
Great news Tazzieman!Well well , from thinking I would have to wait until mid September I have been informed my vehicle is on land , just awaiting some attachments, delivery within a couple of weeks.
