So things are changing. For a start Dreadnaught is going to be needing a loving new owner. There will be a formal for sale advert in a few days. Now don't panic I'm not going anywhere, you're not that lucky. However I suspect I may be. I have just secured a 2018 automatic in charcoal/ anthracite/ dark grey with virtually no miles on. I would bombard your senses with pictures but I don't have any other than the selling dealer ones and I don't own those. There will be a short transitory period but Temeraire will be joining us soon. (Yes I have a thing about naming cars after Victorian ships of the line).

Ah, the Fighting Temeraire! isnt that tempting fate?
Perhaps you need to take it to a French/Spanish 4x4 meet and see if they object to the name
Great news on the Jimny

I can't believe Dreadnaught will be sailing off into the sunset, glad it is being replaced with another Jimny though.

Thank you. I couldn't bring myself to get a 4 but Temeraire has just enough of the useful tech like ESC and Traction Control without some of the other things like lane departure and road signs recognition which I feel are unnecessary. Unfortunately she has tpms but I need to see just how low she will suffer that to be. It's not going to be a problem.
Also Dave don't use Titanic, I know you don't do water but the options for tempting fate after all your hard work!

Yokohama Geolanders, Sony head unit, NAUTILUS Air Horn, DRL conversion, Rear cargo space, Elvis Bobblehead, transfer Guard, Indian hanging Elephant, Koni Heavy track dampers, Custom SS exhaust, Voodoo Doll, Adventure Rack with LED ight bar, vintage ERIBA caravan usually attached (yes it's slow)
Hope the new "Temeraire" is a worthy replacement. It was the same vintage and spec (new at the time) that was our first drive of a Jimny, loved it so much we went out and got a cheaper version. £14K they wanted for a new 2019 fully loaded outgoing G3,just did not want to spend that much at the time. I do remember the TPMS warning light was on though
Titanics a fine name for Daves ship.
Its a great local to me brewery, the beer is very good. Follow link if you want to order some.

And just like Dave's luck at the moment with the shakedown, "its was alright when it left"

Unfortunately I'm not paying anything like that for Temeraire. But hey its only money. There are parts of the country I could buy a house with the same money but you can't take it with you so I may as well enjoy it!

One of my pals named his boat Titanic after a fellow sailor T-boned him on the local pond whilst racing. Fortunately, it didn't sink (our boats have to have air bags installed) and lived to fight another day.
Hope no one T-bones your Boogie, or scrapes down the side.
