I would be happy to advise anyone about Central Australia when they are passing through. I work in the centre of town and can catch up for a cup of coffee any time and look at some maps.
I was a...

Birthday Waterhole.
This is a nice 15km track, easy to moderate (few sandy river patches) with some fabulous scenery along the way. It is a great base to do some exploring and hiking in the West...
Thank you for the kind comments, please stay tuned for the next installment, hopefully to come after this weekend. This time a real 4WD destination awaits...

There is one issue with this vehicle, and I am interested in members thoughts.
The third party mechanic that I took it too identified a crack on one of the extractors. It appears as if there has...
G'day all,
This is my first Patrol. Although most of my previous experience driving 4WDs was with Troopies, I was attracted to the reliable reputation of both the TD42 motor and gearbox. It is...

Today I picked up my first Patrol. She is nothing fancy, but should be suitable for my needs - 1994 DX TD42, 371000km. Purchased from a dealer in Alice Springs for $6500.
I will...
