I'm looking forward to it ... having a gander at everyone elses trucks is as exciting as off roading as they're are not that many Jimny's about in the grand scheme of things and seeing them in the flesh is always better than on the interweb or in magazines.

Everyone has little details that they have done to their trucks that they don;t necessarily see worth mentioning but to others are fascinating.

You can get inspiration for new mods and see what does and does not work and what you could have done better along with what you are pleased you did differently to others.

Just need to get that magic MOT - which should be coming tomorrow if they get the right CAT in tomorrow! They got the wrong one in today and that is all that stands in the way of the magic green and white piece of paper!

We've been running 205/80/16's for a while and did not have a problem with 60mph with the old transfer box or the Rocklobster!

Would love to get a rocklobster fitted... money isnt the issue, its finding the correct bits to give to Rob Storr. Even trying to contact him direct I have been unsucessful to ask if he has any off the shelf.... Then I would have to fit the damn thing and I just donot have the time.

As much as I would HATE to, I fear a Landrover is probably the only way forward as things are so much more readily available and cheaper... plus there are loads of specialists out there, and I can have a V8... time for a beer I fear !!
