Hi Folk's from Dublin

[Ruairí Devoy]

Delighted to see so many like minded land cruiser lovers. My story started 12 years ago in Wicklow when I say my jeep for the first time.... after many years of driving bliss , my fuel pump packed it's bag's and I was fecked... the country was on its knees with bank bail outs and I had no money to fix my margie as I call her. 5 years when by ,missing her every day but never giving up . Children arrived and family being so important to me as I work with my brother and father as cabinetmaker's , that always came first. My Dad/boss lent me the money for the fuel pump and engine rebuild . He got to ride in her before he passed away... don't worry I paid my Ma back. Well now I'm nearly out from underneath her with shocks , track rods , damper, wheel bearings. ... new turbo last week. She's booked into the body shop next week and I'm looking to get new tyres after that.... this story will never end as I now have 3 kids who love margie as much as me and my dear wife rolling her eyes at me . Hope I haven't lost you in my story
