    Cooroy Mountain is open for the public to climb one day a year Camper. You pay to climb, however all proceeds go to a nominated local charity.It is owned by a family who bought 'Wimmers' soft drinks and 'Cooroy Mountain Water'. They saved a lot of local jobs by doing so.

    Isn't it Head Up Display not HeadS Up Display ? Most people only have one head. (Depends where you come from I suppose).

    You are right Dave, it is Head Up Display. I guess it's the Aussie in me that likes to think of the car giving me the "heads up, ya speedin' again, idiot"

    Either way I love that Holden put it in the V6 for me.

    Thanks Robbo, I might give it a try one time.

    But if someone else drives the same car they use a different head.

    Should be no reason at all,
    Do it and take some pics,it’s all about getting out there.
    And you are correct some of the photos are stunning,and if his trips get more people out and about then that is great.

    Cheers Kiwivan
    It is not about the journey,It is the style we travel in!

    Cheers Valencia, I wonder if if that HT kept going afterward, quite possible, interior like a loungeroom on the Brougham! Rest assured, if I do end up in Northern Australia on tour in the Kingy, (not immediately likely though) but I reckon the only thing I would have to seriously worry about is tyres - the rest just works.

    No reason at all, that's kinda the point I'm trying to make. I'm passionate about showing people you don't need much to see Australia.

    A 2wd car, some maps and a can do attitude will get you to 85% of places and local tour operators will get you the rest of the way.
