Other been away though back

Yes its been a while and not been playing with range rovers much. Just the L322 now.


Really sad to hear about the sad events, it really douce my soul the thoughts of you all, like a dysfunctional fanily, we've seen other through good times and bad.

Been a hectic couple of years with lots to contend with. Since the sale of the P38 I've oddly got into motorcycles and despite all the personal goings on the L322 has been well behaved and pulling like a train. Yes throws a fault for a headlamp or what not but GAP IID tool, resets everything. It does need a little love. Wheel arch blister, etc.

Went the whole way on bikes having never ridden before and in the space of two years having 4 1,000 sport bikes and getting on track when I can.
Makes a change working on bikes in a garage rather than on my back in the soaking rain banging my knuckles up, laying on a wet ground with grit falling on my face grinding yet another corroded bolt off.

Anyways, just to let you all know you're never far from my thoughts, especially when I see a classic, a P38 or an L322

Go steady on the bikes, born again bikers are top of the accidents list Sadly I can no longer afford a bike, at my age the insurance is punitive.

Too true. Just before the pandemic we had a spate of motorbike accidents with over 70 year olds. Really bad multiple trauma. One bloke managed to break nearly every bone in his body apart from the small ones in the ear. Amazingly he survived although he did spend 9 months in ITU. That cost about £2,500 a day to keep the old duffer alive. Thank goodness for the NHS, eh?

If only he'd tried harder.

I started my driving on bikes, first was Honda P50 moped, which wasn't that bad, it was a massive step up from the push bike. Next was a Honda 175, which I passed my test on. Finally a Suzuki GT380, which was fantastic, it knocked the Honda into a cocked hat, then driving lessons, bikes no more. The bikes today I don't even like the look of
