Boris
Well before I get shot down in flames for posting pictures of my series one, I thought I should put some on of my newly acquired Puma. I bought it from a mate, who sadly had to part with it due to health issues. Its a 2009 model, and with just under 6000 miles on the clock!

Modifications so far are filling the screw heads on the door hinges with araldite to try and ensure they stay on the car, as theft of doors and bonnets is sadly rife around where I live.





Oh, and its called Boris......

Nice truck,

Very low mileage. Thumbs Up Ironic picture too next to the Tata sign. Good idea about the Araldite in the door hinges, I put stainless ball bearings in mine and sealed them in place, anything to slow the toe rags down. If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!!

No - although that place is not far from us - it was taken near Shap just off the M6 in Cumbria - near a limestone quarry, so I expect the limestone is used in steel production? Euro-Leafing to infinity and beyond.....

Thanks - not my first choice, but beggars can't be choosers, and its growing on me - I guess all Land Rovers should be green, and it matches my Series One! Euro-Leafing to infinity and beyond.....
