Hi,

There is an article in this months LRO magazine. Toger you were talking about how the orange paintwork was chosen in a earlier thread. It mentions a rumour that a Land Rover marketing team had a bright orange pot in their kitchen and that is where the inspiration came from. I bit had to beleive :w00t: G4 owners club even has a mention:). Also another rumour is that 2008/9 G4 Challenge might be heading for the Himalayas, Beijing, Mongolia.

You'll also see on page 142 & 143 the story of my Disco purchase.

It seems John P has revealed more than Land Rover have about the next G4 too, his editorial description of the 3rd G4 challenge sounds very insightful, it'll be great to be involved if i can swing it - i've always wanted to go to Nepal!

I've also written an article for a later edition (i think October) about a race i had between Giles Wolfe's G4 110 and one of his M-A-D mountain bike team at the Rockingham circuit - so get your LRO subscription in and read all about it!

Cheers,

Brian.

Sorry, subscribers get their copies a few days earlier than they appear in the shops... it's the September issue (issue 10 2007) which arrived in the post for me yesterday.

Lots of info on the G4 and i've been told that LR will be issueing a statement next week - even though they meant to announce it yesterday, but it's been delayed for some reason and they haven't updated the LR website to change the 13th August date that was put on there about a month ago...

Brian.

Good news there then - i'm just in the middle of finishing off the 2006 basic vehicle info pages for the main website - the 2003 set is already done and you can see that stuff at http://www.g4ownersclub.com/AboutVehicles2003.htm

Hopefully i'll get it uploaded this afternoon, but if not then won't be too long!

Peter Jarrett,

I might just add here that I really looking forward to seeing Brian's article in LRO From the pictures he took whilst on the shoot which I've been privy to, its going to be a great feature.

I've just got back from Newquey working with my MAD team on the LR stand, wow what an event! anyone want to see some pics??
