Yeh! But we only have your word that you're hooked up to a trailer.

I see the pic leaves much to the imagination. If it IS a trailer, then you can call it G3, but if it's a tintent.........

Back down to G1.25

You'll be needing at least six more lights, an a bar, a raised air intake and a winch too. Oh, and a active rear diff

The last part will require you buying a new D3 if you haven't got one fitted already

Nobody buys a G4 D3 without knowing what an active locking diff is!

You are Sooooooooooooo wrong.

I had about 3 minutes to make my mind up, or it was off to live in Hull and I just couldn't let that happen.

I had just cleaned it after 1 week of seriously muddy lancashire/cumbria..............I think its about a hundredweight lighter after hosing out the arches !!

won't stay that way for long but I reckoned I'd better clean it before sticking the G4 stickers on........

BTW, spare stickers available after an expensive miscalculation by me!...see for sale section 2007 HSE Java Black.....sold
