I hate those super-bright LED headlights - find them blinding on approaching cars; cars with indicators on the inside of headlights and tiny rear indicators sandwiched between the tail and stop lights.
LOL.....(Please bear in mind I am someone who still plays LP's)...not very tech minded
I'm with you on that one John

I don't really see the point in daytime running lights. If it starts to get dark, put side lights on!
Others will disagree.

SJ's Like or not like.

I love the classic SJ design.

I dislike the wheel arch rust hot spots :thumbdown:

Imagine if they'd made a fully galvanized chassis version with all aluminum panels :thumbup:

tbh they dont really need a galvanised chassis... they hardly ever rot away.
My friend bought one that had been used for dropping a jet ski into the sea for 3 years and EVERYTHING was rusty as hell apart from the chassis
