Well of all the permutations that you & Mrs DD discussed last w/end, that was not one of them. Hopefully not a sign that DiscoPoppy could be hired out to the Royal Mail.

spent a few hours this evening trying to get the winch off the current D4 - what a nightmare - despite being copper greased the bolts are solid - ive had to split two nuts and now cant even get to two of the corroded nuts on the winch bracket/front cross member. fortunately the local dealer will take the winch of the current D4 and put it on the new one on MondayDuncan

It did cross my mind to just cut the brackets off and leave it at that. But they are hefty things and would take ages to cut through.Duncan

traded in the FL2 and picked up the D4 today
just as I remember it - the seats are a little worn on the drivers seat so needs some colour restorer, but apart from that - seems just as it was when I sold it , plus a few more miles
