Waiting for the new roof rack and a gas tank protector.
The only thing left to decide if to get the Rasta spare wheel carrier (for my full size).
Here is my out-of-the-dealer LR3 being taken for it's first rock day: ''
I did hit the bottom of the car.... ''

Great vid...I bet the heart rate went up with a new vehicle, I know mine did just watching.
Were the new rock sliders easy to fit? I have a set waiting to clear customs at the moment, should have them in about 2 weeks as I nearly crunched a sill with mine when it was new also
Now I have to add another spot overseas I would love to drive in, it looks a beautiful spot. More vids would be great Life is short...get it dirty...as often as you can.

Good for you in taking it out! That is a tremendously well made decision. You spent the money, might as well get your money's worth eh?
In the video, at time 3:58, looks like the stock Crapyear tires really let you down (pun intended), and I'd have to say, your spotter, while incredibly patient, appeared to inexperienced with what the LR3 can do. The line you took down the first part of the rock line was off by about 2 feet (to Passenger) of where I would have put you.
Glad you got the sliders, they are excellent and will serve you well.
