As i mentioned in the last thread i need you guys to vote again to bring me in to the lead position.
All the proceeds will be pumped in to my brand new "STOCK" GU Patrol.
Its times like these that you need everyone to rally behind you to take you to a win so Please Please vote for my entry.

Its the blue hilux surf that pops up first when you click on the link.

As a small incentive, if i win ill give away $200 worth of ARB gear to one lucky voter. Simply post the vote count after you vote for me. If it matches the random number i have written down you win... simple!

Thanks again guys!

The GU is owned by a Moderator from Patrol4x4 ;) so a fair chance he has a few mates ;)

I wanna see pics of your GU before i vote for a Toyota over a GU mate sorry!!! Post them up here. If you had 1000 post count here it would be different but 50% of your posts here would be asking for votes and your at 33 post count now!!

I asked the question about who owns this car this morning as i was concerned to see it appear on another forum looking for Votes too. I was concerned about our members being misled.

I am assured by the member on the other forum that this guy is Legitimate and he does own a GU. Clunk has also advised me that there is a pic of his GUIV in another thread dealing with wiring rear lights.

Happy to leave this thread up on that basis and Wish you well in the Competition mate.

Asking for proof was a legitimate question to ask, I would not ask you guys to vote for me with the amount of posts I have, and not post heaps of photos. It would be embarrassing for a nissan forum to vote for a toyota and find out we were hoodwinked. Thanks go to MR for looking after our interests.

It saddens me to see people acting like this.
But i can understand it all seems a bit suss.
You asked for photos of the GU and here it is - after i did both brake/tail lights:

http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2013/08/202.jpg

You can slightly see the surf next to it in the garage.
Right now thats all i have but i can take side by sides tonight if that's what you need to eliminate all elements of doubt.

Why didn't i enter the Patrol?

The ARB comp has been running since: June 24th 2013.
- I took ownership of the GU on the 11th Aug.

As most of you who have actually taken the time to read my posts before jumping to conclusions may be able to work out.

Im running in this comp fair and square fellas.

Thanks to all those that voted! I hope i still have your support for a win!

Thanks for clearing it all up, and I wish you luck in the comp, though I would not like to be you if ARB takes offence.
Although
You have entered a hilux and other people have voted for your hilux assuming you would spend the winnings on your hilux, I don't think this is fair to them, but that's for your conscience to ponder over not mine.
You did not reply when asked and whilst you would have a good reason for this it did make you look guilty until it was cleared up.
You made the right choice joining this forum they are a great bunch of people as last w/e trip showed to me, I hope you can give back to the forum as much as your asking for. the blokes deserve it

Yeah I agree. He has offered to buy an ARB compressor to go into the Christmas raffle on p4x4 which goes towards the CFA but $5000 is $5000 and $5000 worth of ARB vouchers will be easy to convert to cash I would have thought. You war right his car is Fully Modded. He would have to strip stuff off to fit stuff using that voucher!
