I bet its an absolute pig to drive with a wheel base that long. Build quality is probably terrible too it being a very limited run that won't get tested and enguineered thouroughly. Still the extra space is going to come in handy fitting in some of those fat american arses.

I will take Shortie's beast anyday over that hunk of junk. :side:

what sort of speed do you do you get out of this toy

i have a juiced up landrover that goes to fast too the best ive got out of her was a bit past 100mph [on the beach] before i lost my nerve its built for off road not going fast but does both

modified holden 202

heavy crank weighted flywheel alloy timing gears anti pump up lifters high volume oil pump high torque cam extractors port polish modified carby and air cleaner

nissan cabstar 5speed

33inch tyres

6inch suspension lift

1inch body lower

softended springs

double shockies

removed suspension limiters

soft top

custom leather dash

pair bucket seats

waterproofed to 4ft all breathers diffs etc electricals

modified chassis

diff lock on the rear

at 1500 rpm she sits on 110, 3000rpm 150kmh on the highway or in bog cog she does 6000rpm at a bit under 3kmh which puts it up massive hills easy the cabstar gear box converion whilst expensive is worth it

not a normal rover but she was fun in her day about ten yrs ago now shes near death under a tarp :(:angry:
