After a few weeks

Post by Alex »

So after a few weeks of owning my first patrol and now having to leave on work, amoungst other important things I freaking miss the thing.. :cry:

I get a kick out of seeing the guys get new patrols and posting pictures, so I thought it would just be fair of me to do the same. :thumbup:
So here are a few.

Worlds apart Tinus, but don't be doubting, that little kia will show you other things.
Bite marks in the seat! places I've been in that little thing. :surprised: I have had people in there fully kitted hiluxes in front of me up matroosberg. diff lock engaged, spinning stones all over the place, wives screaming :rolling: and they get cross at me following along with the one hand on the steering wheel the other on a zamalek lekker chilled, pickling up behind them.

But as you said, haven't thought of of the ou kia lately at all, reminds me I should probably be putting a bit more effort into getting it sold.

Alex,
As you say.
There are always pro's and con's.
The smaller cars tend to do very well as well (under certain conditions).
It still helps to be seated behind the steering of a troll. It just feels right.
Enjoy it.
