Thanks Tristan.

We have had one failure in the Leone all ready. Thats motoring for ya. The gearbox has given in. Matt, your gearbox is going in sooner than the 2 months. Out comes the single range an in goes the D/R .

A little update on the Leone. It now has 14" wheels and fitted with 27" nangkangs. Also has a nudge type bar .

Thanks mate, We haven't finished yet. It now has impreza front seats in it . They even have purple trimmings in them. Now looking at seeing if we can fit the impreza rears in. Also looking at putting a E.J.18 in ti some time in the future, if the dollars allow.

Hey Matt, Quickest way to learn about the newer models, is have them with no back up car . If only car ya have , ya have to learn quick to keep on the road...LOL..

We picked it up the Gen2 liberty Saturday. Just in time to get 10 kms from home, to be flood bound. After 6 hrs of waiting , we found away round the flood . It was another 50 kms, but we were glad to be home.
