Speaking of licence plates, on a recent trip to Townsville, I'm now retired in Bowen, a couple of hours south, found the licence plate ending in FP5 I would have liked to have gotten- unfortunately it's on a late model Patrol LOL. Have had little to do on the car cosmetically, got some custom seat covers made to protect the interior from our wonderful UV up here, most work has been mechanical- has not been looked after very well. Cleaned up oil leaks, power steering and front shocks, wheel alignment and balance and got new rear drive shafts installed.
Going to get new plugs fitted next week, it uses the Iridium ones and source the rattle in the timing chains, hopefully just guides and tensioners.
Access is a bugger , so getting local mechanic to do the job. Car is my daily driver so not willing to tackle the job, some special tools required as well. The RS was a much simpler car to work on......oh well. Len
