What A tidy looking LWB Its a shame your trailers not painted to match! Its nice to See a SJ doing what It was originally designed for, Pottering about and working rather than just mud plugging!

A-men to that. She looks so at home in that picture, it could be from a dealership brochure.

Thanks guys, got to finish the paint work, but I agree she looks quite at home working in the forest. I like the idea of painint the trailer to match never thought about that- just bought the trailer which used to be a fire fighting ampliance for the Forestry Commission so its well sturdy with the landrover wheels.

U have me thinking now about how to do the trailer later in the summer.

Just did over 1000 miles since November in the SJ around Northumberland, a few weeks ago I was having a moment of madness and put her up for sale to get a Vitara, thankfully didnt sell so going to now probably drop a Vitara Engine in and finish the paint work as she is solid all round....

Could be tempted to sell for the right price, seen a nice Long Wheel Base Vitara, seems I keep toying with this idea.

Remembering I have spent around £1000 on parts, brakes are new all round, new rear heavy duty springs etc etc, I wont let it go for pennies, but a quick serious offer whilst I have my eye on this Vit might just sell....
cheers
