Hello to all you fine people out there.
There doesn't appear to be a 'New Members' forum, so I've posted here

I've only recently found this site & decided to join.

I reside in the northern section of England in the fair county of Yorkshire.

In response to what may be one of the first questions anyone asks;

Yes there's a few 'General' replicas over here, but only 1 original studio car that I know of & that's in a museum


My main automotive delight over here is Land Rovers, being on my 4th.

However, I'm off to drive a TVR Griffith 500 (http://community.webshots.com/photo/344259581/419201895QsqTYT) for my 40th birthday very soon (its performance makes a Viper look sissy :wink: )


Yes, I'd love a 69 Charger. (who wouldn't??), but with our petrol at US $7.70 a gallon (Uk gallon is bigger), it's not entirely practical
That's circa US $1.70/litre

Good Evening Julie (it's 21:10 our time here)
Thankyou for the rapid response, yes petrol's dear as about 70% of it is tax

I'm glad my Land Rover Discovery is diesel, as it does almost 30mpg on it (as is the wifes company car)

It's an Akubra, an Australian 'bush-hat', the model is the Sombrero.
It does look like the Mexican Sombrero when they're made, it was shaped that way.

Go to the 'Mud-Club' link (& any of my postings), or to my Website (look on 'Miscellania, People & Friends' for a better picture)

You're only 40minutes down the M1 then

Someone's done it to a Discovery already :lol:

MMmm, just noticed there's no 'Add Photo' option :evil: :evil: :evil:

If you're into Landis, try the 'Mud-Club' link below (free) & there's quite a few Yorkshire members & some in Sheffield

just wanted to let you know that I joined the Mud-club even though I don't have an off road vehicle.

You know what really bugs me, are people who buy 4x4's and then never use them off road. I see quite a few H2s here in Philadelphia, and I know that these cars have never been off road, the way the originals were built for. I used to have a 4x4 pickup truck and have taken it on some tank trails on the base that we used to live by. That was fun. I hate seeing a clean 4x4!
