Heres me in my other favorite car ;D

Drumclog 4x4 offroad weekend last month.

Mines the one with the casters on the roof ;D
The pink one isnt mine!! Although it has Scorpio leather seats, indicators, seat belts and steering wheel ;)

Not the type of 4x4 the school run Mums get a name for ;)

I'd like to see a Cayenne or Merc ML270 do that ::)

Looks great fun mate, not sure I've got the ground clearence though ;D ;)

Looks like good fun Highlander - but I think you'll have to explain the purpose of diff lock (assuming it has it) as the pink one looked like it was only running the back axle.

As for yours, Macroy, did it wash up downriver? }{

The Suzuki's dont have a diff lock as standard, they are pretty good without them, better than them old Landrover things ;)
a welded diff would make for exciting road driving (they are both road legal) and the aftermarket difflockers are still way too expensive :o

Welded diff!? Fine if you're going in a straight line and all the tyres are the same diameter I suppose...

Almost makes me wish i didn`t swap a broken Discovery for my cossie.
Then again, it was a bit of a shed.
