Is that a winch on the disco?

[@wewouldntbedeadforquids6005]

@ianbailey4114 it certainly is.

@@wewouldntbedeadforquids6005 Haven't seen one on a disco. Good to see a landrover in the bush.

@@ianbailey4114 If not the first, this would have been literally in the first 2 or 3 D5’s fitted with a winch in AU. I imported the fitting kit from the USA.

Thanks Pete. There was about 20minutes of footage with Will. Cut to the bones but enough to give some idea about the station and what it does.

How did you find the landy ( discovery ) hold up on your trip and what mph (klm)where you achieving.Enjoy😃

Hi @robblandamer744. Thanks for watching and the question.The D5 is at home in the Australian Outback. It's powerful and reliable. She developed a water pump leak before we left Uluru. It wasn't a huge issue. I just had to keep water up to it. It was replaced under warranty in Perth WA. We've traveled thousands of Outback kilometers in her. Are you referring to fuel consumption? If so, for the 1100km of the GCR we averaged 16.7l/100km. Typically, on a trip this length (15500km) we average over all about 17.5l/100km If it's speed you are referring to we averaged 54 kph for the 1100km.
