Nothing to do with me but it struck me as probably the biggest rack you could ever fit on a 110?
It will cost you a cool £42k mind you

Interesting to see. It was for sale back at my local garage, Strathearn Engineering in October. Imported back over from Australia of I remember correct. Stuart

Are those bull bars not illegal now in the UK? Not many Wildebeest, Roos or Elephants wandering the plains of Hampshire.... Monsieur Le Grenadier

I thought there was a loophole for bullbars used for lights?
What's on top of the snorkel? |

The bumper has a winch mount which is technically OK but this one doesn't have a winch in it in the pic! |

Bull bars are legal to fit, but not legal to sell unless they are approved. I don’t know what the approval process would be but I guess it would involve demonstrating that the vehicle’s crash performance, including pedestrian impact, is not adversely affected. The ARB bumper usually available in Europe doesn’t have the bull bar bits for that reason. A-bars etc must get around it by being for the purpose of mounting lights.

Is it used for landing helicopters on?
For that price, they can peel the ‘One life, live it’ stickers off before I drove it home. Grenadier, have you any idea how dangerous pheasants are in the Outback of the UK? The motor needs a bit of protection  |

There's a winch cable and a winch hook visible in the photos, so the winch is probably in there somewhere.
Not for lights, but you can have a bar if it is part of a winch mounting system (provided that it is insured, of course). It looks to me as though the photographer has put his breakfast McMuffin down on the RAI while he takes the photos. |

Winch is in situ. The hook and cord are visible here, just tidily tucked away.
