Welcome to the fold Tomas

Cracking pics

Welcome Tomas and Inge, that was a remarkable first post, some terrific pictures, especially 4 5 & 6, c'mon guys I bet you all thought the same

Nice pics, welcome to the forum

Welcome Tomas (and Inge)!

Looks like you have our snow

Cheers,

Welcome Tomas. Looks lovely, wish I had one like that. I used to, but then as it got older and a bit battered it didn't look quite so nice. There's only so much that you can do to keep them looking that nice really, especially if you use them regularly.


Chris

Chris that is genius! Had your air bags seen better days. I think mine have a leak.

Well the alignment on the headlights went. The exhaust used to blow occasionally. Paintwork was a bit flaky and the chassis was totally shot. Rear bumper sagged quite badly and the engine used to rattle constantly. All of the stuffing came out of the upholstery.

I considered uprating the springs but to be fair she was past her prime really and no longer as tight as she once was. Quite a soggy ride all round. Not even sure if she was firing on all cylinders at times. Drank like a fish and just didn't have any Ooomph any more.

These things can't last for ever can they.


Chris

To be fair Chas, I could have lived with most of those faults, but it was the constant dripping fluids that really made me decide that it was time for a change. Once the gaskets have gone, you are at the top of a very slippery slope.

Welcome Thomas and Inge
At least you have blue sky in winter rather than grey. Are there good places to going 4wding in Slovakia? Can you recommend and places you take your truck to drive? The UK is getting less and less 4wd friendly so it is always good to know other countries to explore.

What is the equipment in the shop? Is that your shop and what are you selling?

Hello Everyone!

At first,I would like to thank you very much for your positive reactions and welcome Us on your Land Cruiser web

To SimonD: We live in the capital city of Slovakia ( Bratislava ) and there are no many places to go offroading.Maybe on our small mountines Karpaty or along the river Dunaj ( Donau ,Danube )

Better chances are in the middle of Slovakia and on the east of Slovakia.26 - 27.2.2011 We will go to offroad meeting in Brezno.Than I will post here some pics.

What shop do you mean?I dont have any shop.Maybe you can talk about the shop on the page I posted here a link with my thread.If you mean this,this is our basic bazaar or sale shop on our hondaclub web,where everybody can sell parts which they dont need.

Sorry for my English,it is not so perfect but I am endeavour to write the best i can.I hope,that for a time spend here it will be better

Thank you very much for all !

Best regards
Tomas

Sorry,I have a question.May I write here into this thread every our news and post here new pics?

If yes,this is our small Sunday trip to Karpaty.

Hi and welcome aboard both of you

Great photos and a tidy looking truck too.

Nice looking ride you have there And welcome to ELCOC

May I ask you why you have fitted a long thin number plate to the back instead of a square one

Like the one that I have fitted on Fiery;
