No Lude stuff has happened in the last while but the Elgrand is going strong and using loads of fuel :lol:

This is the real Beast from the East! It is awesome in the snow with its 4WD. Plus I did my first ever doughnut the other day 8-)

can you believe i have been looking into one of these i to wont the e51 with the 350z v6 in it , from what i can see the only downsides to them are the tiny glovebox , how are you finding the drivers leg room it seems if you are over 6 foot like me you could do with the seat going back a bit more , the only other problem to plague the v6 is having 4 cats it seems the front pair can break up and block the second pair causing a back pressure problem to the engine , the cure seems to be the removal of one set of cats or just remove the internals so it seems you still have cats fitted .
The only downside i can see to these vehicles is the overall length it might poke out my parking space at home :lol: , i am lucky there is a place not far from me that must import them so really need to go have a look at some , question is then which of my current cars do i sell to make room for it :?
