Don't it suck that we don't have the ability to just drive where we like? I look at the pictures from people overseas and we just don't get to drive into scenery like that.
I understand we are only a little island and that if there wasn't some sort of restrictions in place it would be a free for all and the minority would still spoil it.
I watch videos of the yanks driving stuff in Moab and hammering away on centuries old rocks and ledges it doesn't seem to worry them, yet you drive a muddy bombhole on a lane here and you're slated by the antis.

But what are the penalties and how heavily are they policed?
We have to contend with legal lanes being closed with a Temporary restriction order, usually through the winter. The fines are reasonably hefty for ignoring the order.

Hello,
Today, making a shield for the fuel tank
A new one that costs between 150 and 250 € :sick:
I first bought your sheet 5mm thick aluminum for scrap metal recovery (2 € per kilo
). I've had for 16 €.
followed by formation of the shield (difficult to deform because the aluminum is thick, it must be heated and type like crazy
)
and control over the vehicle, adjusting for all:
everything is bolted, as I did not have the equipment to weld aluminum.
Now my steel angles are painting, everything goes back on Tuesday
