It was that site that made me decide to buy a Disco and ditch the FL2.
Waaaaay too expensive to be discovering the joys of green laning & off roading in. :eek:

i discovered the joys of landing in my rangie l322 :D, iv had the scratched detailed out now though, still new side steps are rather expensive!

loving the new disco tho
 
cheers mark... think thats the starting point...

it is a bit split in places..

also gonna have a proper look in the morning for any missing nuts and bolts...
 
All my donut bolts were still in place - it was just a shredded mess.
Changed it and all was well again. :)

Yes, I learnt the hard way too.
That trip to Parkwood in the FL2 cost me £500 to rectify the damage. Had to get all 4 wheels refurbed, the fuel tank cage changed and the reinforced front guard replaced. :eek:
Was very lucky to not do any damage to the paintwork. :D

Yea I'm on my own in the car aswell, I will be in my bright orange defender with roll cage. Cheers mate and I will see you tomorrow.
 
Had a cracking day today. Went straight into a few black routes, got to do some winching and sacrifice yet another door mirror on another tree.... an allround enjoyable day.
Mate Rob was in the passenger seat, n was gettin out and taking some photos, so will post up as soon as he sorts them.
 
saw you a coupe of times, was a good day, iv come home with dented rear quater and minus a wing indicator no idea where or when they appeared but was a good day
 
nice to see you again joe, got a bit occupied after dinner when john snapped a driveshaft in one of the gulleys and no steering. spent a good hour fannying about with that and managed to snap front half shaft on the 90 not long after so bit of an early bath.

Glad ya had a good day too...

Aw ****!... thought you'd had ya fill with sorting the stalling / filter thing... Ddint realise it had all gone a bit tits up for ya!....

We went down to the pond watchin a nicely sorted trials special with a megasquirt equiped Landy V8 playing...Then led them down the black routes at bottom fence we'd done earlier. Thought we'd need the winch, but got lucky n made it though only knocked mirror clean off, but no biggie. No such luck with their special, it was running very low tyre pressures n ended up popping one of the tyres of the rim...felt a bit guilty, so went back t car park to guide the support disco to 'em with a spare wheel. Smart truck, n first time we've seen a petrol V8 comprehensively stick its fingers up at loads of water....not having a dizzy obviuosly makes all the difference!
...mmm megasquirt is a bit expensive, so might give it a miss for mine tho t be honest
 
Great place to play around, marshals helpful n friendly.
Here's a few pics from my last trip.
