After only 19 years of off road fun the old 89 bighorn failed its wof (roadworthy) inspection so badly that its next journey will be its last. Luckily at the same time after 2 years of searching a 95 swb bighorn came up at the right price. Its a manual 3.1 diesel and even better it already has plenty of toys added. It still needs front tow hooks to be upgraded and my locker and winch to be fitted but then its good to go. Last owner had it 15 years and looked after it quite well. It runs like a truck with half the mileage should.
