Finally got my 4.8 GRX!!!

Post by Langman »

After one helluva long week she has arrived... :woo: What an absolute pleasure driving this Patrol...could not resist giving it some horns :devil: yesterday because of the huge difference between my 3.0D and this beast...not to mention the lovely sound of a straight six at work :layrubber: . For now a huge distraction from those 2 guages on the top left of the cluster. :rolling: Seriously though as much as I enjoyed the 3.0D I can assure you the joys I will have with this will far exceed those pleasures.

I have taken one pic so far...too busy driving yesterday and will try and post but for now she looks pretty standard and as beautiful as only a Patrol could look. Once I have taken her to a fitment centre to throw in some add on's I will post. Thanks to Rocstompa for letting me know of SAFARI CENTRE in PE's specials....they will come in handy.

Once she is done Steven we can take those 2 golden beauties to the bush or dunes for a workout...(sounds illegal and dodgy) :rolling:

My foto is verder boontoe so nou sal julle nie meer met my sukkel nie. Het net so bietjie gesukkel met die sizing van die foto...sal vanaand so paar beter foto's neem en more opsit. Maar maak nie saak van watter hoek mens kyk nie die Patrollie's bly maar mooi! :thumbup:
