Nomad Collection

Post by stupot » Sat Feb 26, 2022 5:09 pm

Collected our new Nomad this morning; its one of the latest batch of 10. There are a number of jobs that I want to do before it hits the road but already looking forward to many nomadic adventures in 2022.

Thanks to Tom for sorting us out, Jim for building another Ariel for us with detailed build photos and Ben for today's handover.

Looks lovely - really like the colour scheme! Have you got the 4 dashboard and AP racing brakes?

I agree, the colour combination is fantastic, I like the 18inch wheels.

Be interesting to see the dash if you have the 4 version.

Totally agree with the winch, spotlight and spare wheel omission.

I suspect this was influenced by the Nomad R...

It does have AP brakes and 4 dash; will post some images tomorrow.

Colour scheme was decided not long after we ordered it in late 2018 and not wavered since. The Nomad R just cemented it, especially NGoodman’s.

In which case, perhaps the R's look was influenced by you! 8) Look forward to seeing more photos.

That's not the 4 dash, unless they've changed it, it's the new optional dash I've had fitted to my R. It's a jolly good thing.

Correct, it's the same dash but with different graphics. I actually prefer these to the 4's.

Thanks for the pictures of the dash, a much clearer presentation. I like it.

Yep so much better than the A4 fixed graphics 👍, shame as the MXSL can be nicely configured in vanilla setup
