Hi

I have purchased my second landcruiser, first one I owned over 20 years ago, FJ45 which was fantastic. I have bought a 79 series 4.5 v8 TDI and would like to do some greenlaning in Lincolnshire / Midlands and meet people with similar interests.

I do enjoy the outdoors having been raised in Zimbabwe, keen on fishing and shooting too, now live in the UK permanently. I have owned range rovers, touaregs, and a Q7, nothing touches the cruiser.

welcome to the club I'm in Lincoln and go laning in the peak district as there arent to many lanes in Lincolnshire

 

[PedroAraujo]

Hi Sharpy, I would be keen to seek out some lanes, I have a 13 year old son who is a petrol head, we are looking to start this summer, would like to tag along if that's ok?

Hi and welcome good looking cruiser you have you could come to the Lincomb meet it is a lot of fun from Tony.

 

[PedroAraujo]

Hi Tony, I am sure I will head your way, like your cruiser too, had one with a 2F motor, really powerful, especially running on Avgas.

Welcome, nice Crusier you have. I am in Norfolk, with family in Lincs, would love to get together for a few lanes in the Peaks or Yorks with fellow Cruisers

 

[PedroAraujo]

Thank you, I have extended family in Norfolk, would like to do a few lanes with other like minded cruiser owners, far too many landies around, I guess we have to raise the bar on reliability stats!

Looks like we need to do an Eastern meet at least somewhere.

Only half hour from me then. I'm wisbech. A get together sounds great. A yarwell or tixover pay and play day might be worth considering for a meet.

A V8 in the UK is a rare thing, any problems getting it registered, any mods needed for emissions?
