I've just got these for Maddy - early Christmas present, due to the state of her old ones!

Now the question is - will I get something Land Rover related too?

hold on - we chaps mostly try to hide 4wd/off-road activities from the light of our lives on account of the risk of estrangement/divorce/beheading/sequestering of the debit and credit cards, so have you got an especially understanding one or does she just not know yet that a set of tyres are, in "blokeworld" an acceptable substitute for a world cruise/personal jet/perfume factory etcetc?

A bucket and big sponge so she can wash my Disco after green-laning trips  :lol:

Neil, I think you should get Maddy an alloy wheel cleaning kit to show off her new tyres  better  :wink:

neil my old mate

you are a true romantic me i would have taken her away in the silver stead for a weekend pampering.

however you could ask mrs muddy to make you new t-shirt for her " my old man brought me some general grappers or land rover widow with some holly on each side" or get her a lovely warm Land rover fleece.

sorry i don't know what else to suggest been on my own for to long and listening to the wurzels sorts of melts your brain

Unless Johnty buys me a nice yellow 90 I don't want anything remotely related to 4x4. O he could treat me to a weekend somewhere off roading with just him and no kids that would be acceptable.  I have bought him plenty for his landy though so he really has no need to buy things like that for me  :lol:

Full set of light guards and rubber mats for SWMBO's Freebie are on their way to me as we speak  :lol: Hope she isn't reading this or the surprise will be lost..... OK, surprise may not be the right word.... predictable might be more appropriate! I am not a great present buyer, you see. Flowers??? What are they??  :lol:

Because im mean and horrid- Stanton Boy is banned from having anything on xmas or birthday lists remotely related to Landrovers. :twisted:

Reason- He buys things for it all year round - i rest my case

Strange that, I have just bought Candy a set of Veredstiener (spell?) winter tyres for the Subaru. Not fitted yet but mounted onto a second set of wheels bought on Ebay.

Perhaps I should wrap one of then and put it under the Christmas tree.
