New toys at YSSY?

Hey Nigel

Have you guys got some new toys to burn around the runways in?

Yep, we're upgrading the fleet with new Tritons and that is the new Car 2 (Landcruiser Prado). It's a nice bit of gear, and it goes quite well for a diesel!

Wow, the new Car 2 has wings, three engines and "UPS" written all over it?? Impressive!

Is it an illusion or is car 2 fitted with a bullbar? :confused:

Bullbar indeed. All of the vehicles have them, and they all have rather powerful spotlights mounted on them as well as things like mini-strobes, loudspeakers etc.
The spotlights on the Car 2 and Car B (Nissan Patrol) are the HID variety and give an incredible amount of light compared to the standard halogen globe fitted vehicles.
