It looks like someone had a Suzuki SJ, wanted a range rover classic so butchered on an approximation of the lights from an RR on to the SJ.
The only duster I have driven is on a 14 plate (it was in work for some adaptations and was blocking me in). I assumed it was a new model as I had never heard of one before. You learn something every day :)

my ex mother in law bought one of those dacia duster things in the 90s.. a neighbour gave her 2 more for spares i can only say they all finished in the local scrappy.. as for walking the kids to school it happens at firstborns school & there is a bus provided by the commune but we are not covered :? we sometimes do the school run with dads truck 8-) i would let them walk but its too far & the local lane is sometimes mistaken for the mulsanne straight & far too dangerous :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

A large, angry man, seen getting out of the Transit in the first link, wrote:Ah ain't gettin on no plane, fool!

:shock: It would take someone with very large balls to drive around in something with "Honcho" written on the sides of it! Just look at what happened to Hammond when Top Gear stopped for fuel in 'Bama that time sporting similar phrases and words on their cheap, locally purchased vehicles.
Love the Jeep, but the transfers would have to come off. :lol:

But it's only a 5.7. Why not fit the 7.2 ;)

I was assuming with it being part of GM that you could bung a chevy big block in it.
If you are going to fit a big engine, you may as well fit a BIG engine ;)

Jeep, part of GM? Have I missed something? ;) Though there were also some fairly chunky Mopar V8s..
