Well, now that you've mentioned it, I also got a strange PM from Pieter yesterday that I won't feel so bad about sharing now ......
:roll:

Of course I asked him if he was feeling OK!! :roll:
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow. Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive. It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain. And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

The more I think about this the more it actually upsets me. Perhaps it's just me, but I don't feel that it's fitting for the founding father of the forum to be exchanging his Lux for a LR. I cannot believe Pieter would be doing something like this! Mark, are you sure that he said he wants to replace the Hilux, or just buy a LR while keeping the Lux, which is bad enough but still palatable.

as you can see from the 'quote', his PM did'nt specify .... he just said "the series" ..... maybe Mark has more info since Pieter spoke to him directly.
Heaven fortbid that he decides to change the name of the forum to "Hi-Rover4x4.co.za" !! :roll: :roll:

Maybe he should change his avatar to PINK instead of RED ..... are you listening Pieter! :evil: :evil:

Mark it is Yzerfontein not Ysterfontein.
Ja, you know it is hard being a beach bum and having nothing to do all day.
So I thought of getting this Landy so at least I will have something to do all day. The wife is also nagging me to do the washing and stuff instead of playing on the forum all day, so with the Landy at least I can lie under the vehicle all day, whether I am busy fixing oil leaks or not or just having a snooze, won't matter at least she will be off my back.
So if you look at my current circumstances at this stage of my life a Landy will suit me better.

Ek dog jy is oppad om te gaan kamp, toe vat ek maar die kans om jou terug te byt.
Moet jy nie pak nie? o ja ek het vergeet... Mark is selfs op die forum as hy in die garage werk.
