Tony, PM me and I will give you the address ...

Guys, Currently clearing the garage out and came across an 'Airjack Bag', I had it in the Middle East for use in the desert, but being such a good driver never had to use it so its new well, still in its original wrapping. You connect it to the exhaust and it blows up and raises the vehicle, its...

There are some wheels and tyres on the bay for little money currently, worth watching to see if you can grab a bargain before it finishes... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOYOTA-LANDCRUISER-AMAZON-100-GENUINE-ALLOYS-AND-TYRES-ALL-5-6MM-TREAD/302717811297?hash=item467b633a61:g:L8cAAOSwS-Va4Y0I

'Welcome'....

Ciao Giovanni and welcome to the forum...

£328 on the bay....

It's a nice place to spend a bit of leisure time, who are you working for over there? I was with Xerox in Doha for 4 years until 2005.....

Nice 200 Rey, do you ever take it down to the 'Inland Sea'?

I got so excited watching that old vid and reading the posts I also bought a set and I don't even have an 80.....:flushed:

Kodi is your friend....:eusa-whistle:

She was most likely looking through the window at duty free....:icon-biggrin:

I was quoted £145.00 by the main dealer to change a front headlight bulb on my Peugeot 508....

Decent price as well....

Interesting stuff thanks, and good pics....

Yes, sorry its sold and will be going to Uganda in the next few weeks....

It may also help if you explained to them that you are interested in restoring old 80 series Landcruisers...

We are with OVO in a 5 x bedroom house with a wife who needs the thermo on at least 26C year round and we pay approx £1,900 per year....

That definitely sorts out the men from the boys.....:thumbup:

Congrats on the 100, I would recommend West Coast for any work on it, I have used them many times and always been happy....

Can't help with a new supplier but I have previously bought from RT and Milner's and both lamps fogged up after 12 months....

Welcome Trevor, nice looking truck and great travel plans for it. Spent 10 years in SA and Botswana, miss it loads...

At least it may be bit more reliable now....:)

Nice one...:icon-biggrin:

Reminds me of the old advert with Petunia and her husband on the beach when someone was in trouble out at sea and waving to them for help and they wave back to him.....:)

It is green but in some lights can look black...

Suppose that would depend on how long you intend keeping it....

Looking good Steve, same colour as my old 80, in some lights it shows all the metallics and others it even looks black....:thumbup:

Must put some air in that nearside tyre....

Congrats, it looks terrific....:)

My Mrs didn't want the Amazon initially but now I'm having a hell of a job to pry it off her to sell next month....

You are correct Gra, 2004 was the first of the 5 x speed auto...

But the guy had been a sheriffs deputy for over 20 years so you would have expected him to have undertaken plenty of training....

Maybe the guy should not have been doing the job if he was not prepared to tackle the gunman, it's not as though there was little chance of this happening....

Nice pics, sounds as though things are starting to get a bit easier over there. We were living over in Jeddah when 911 happened but the company moved all expats out withing 2 weeks. , Handy to see you have some lecky you can hook into by the tent.....:)

One door closes and another one opens....:)

Yes...

Are you going to affiliate the site with one of the clubs?

Yes, a few campsites use this matting and it works well...

Thanks for sharing the pics and looks like a damage free day out.......

A couple on the entrance gates to the 'new campsite' would be useful....

Great stuff Karl, it must give great satisfaction to see a finished job that you have done with your own hands, unfortunately I'm not equipped with such skills....

The no toll Route we use is as Follows : Calais , Rouen , Evreux , Dreux, Chartres , Orlean, Clermont Ferrand , Millau , Narbonne and then into Spain. The above route via the A71 / A75 has some steep sections but as long as you have a good power to weight ratio you will be fine and we overnight...

Awesome Vulcans, my Dad worked on Vulcans at AV Roe in Woodford, even though we lived 5 miles away when they revved the engines our bathroom window rattled (before double glazed units)...
