Not at the Extreme Park

We decided to hold in our home area - have access to a farm above Ramarama - see http://www.manukau4wd.org.nz for initial detail - more next month - the Country Inn close by has 63 rooms - we are negotiating rates etc

Awesome Padero,good score,xj informs me today he got one priced from fully equipped for around $1400 that also applies to the arb and smartbar in price range.

I might be needing some sort of replacement after this weekends efforts,diving into a creek nose first,possibly a little to quick(dumb ass)
but will be trying out the 20 ton digger for some corrective surgery.

Keep an eye on the TM one, if it doesn't hit reserve you may get an ok offer on it.
Was going to get it myself, but turns out its too hard to mod to fit the pto in :roll:
