Hi from South Africa!

[Gerrit Loubser]

Hi Guys,

I have just stumbled upon this great forum and immediately joined!

My daily driver and trusty steed is a 1999 (1998 build) Patrol 4.5 GRX Manual that I picked up a few years ago for a comparative steal (well in the South African sense anyway; cars are relatively expensive on this side of the pond). With the TB45E motor, she is more forklift than rocket ship, but I love the old monster. Compared to my wife's DiD Paj (which is also a great vehicle), Imvubu is just ridiculously competent in the rough stuff.:thumbup:

Unfortunately Patrols are nowhere near as common as Land Cruisers in my neck of the woods; quite different from the picture in Aussie, I gather. At least there is now a bit of a Patrol enthusiasts community starting to build up over here. I am a member of the South African Patrol forum (http://www.patrol4x4.co.za).

Anyway, enough babbling for now.

Cheers

Gerrit

Hi from Ukraine! Huge Springbok fan here!

[Clunk]

G'dat Gerrit and welcome aboard mate.................... I see the Springboks were in danger of being beaten by the Welsh last week, they're gonna have to pick up their game if they want to retain the cup!!!

[Mrowka]

They say a champion (*cough* New Zealand *cough* All Blacks *cough*) wins the tough games.

The Bokke managed to squeak out a win against Wales, I hope they can keep doing so.

they were lucky!!!!!............... they only had the ball for 30% of the time!!!!!! hahahahahahaha oh and the All Slacks, how easy is their group hey!!!!?????


ooops sorry Gerrit didn't mean to hijack your thread mate!!!!!!............ nasty habit of mine

:smile: No probs Clunk and fancy meeting you here Mrowka.

Some international rugby banter is always great.

The Springboks did give us fans a few heartstopping moments against Wales (who played a great game, I thought). If the Welsh had kicked more accurately they could have won, but then again that could be seen as "justice" for a debateable refereeing decision or two.

Anyhow, the World Cup is not won in the first rounds. :first:
Let's see how the tournament develops.

Like I said, the Welsh played a great game and if only they had the likes of Neil Jenkins of old, they could have won the game.
