Hi Michael

Looking good.
How do you rate the tyres for the road work ? Also what size are they ? I know they are very good in the mud and quite skinny but look like they might be tad skiddy on wet tarmac corners...?
Did she come with tie down points in the back ?

Hi Sib, the tyres are standard 7.50 x 16m which are fine for road use with not much extra road noise, I think they suit the vehicle, as for lashing points, none fitted, but probably an easy retro fit. JE Zulu 110 now sold
Carpathian 110 also sold

Very nice looking 110 mate...If only my 110 pickup looked like that: Sad
I think you should ditch the rag "thing" for a shiny ifor top!.Love the colour too!.

And Sib. a reply about the tyres.I had a set of them michelen xpc 7.50x16's untill not long ago on my 110.
Absolutly awsome tyre in the mud,in the snow,in sand and the on-road performance was amazing.You could corner them at all sorts of speeds in the wet and they wouldnt budge.Amazing grip.They wear as well as BFG'S too.Very very strong sidewalls near enough solid as steel.
Hope this helps
