I had no delivery's after lunch today so I was stuck at the warehouse for the afternoon. 
After seeing Dans Jim up close I felt a bit embarrassed about the state of mine so I give it a clean.
Not to the "Dan" standard but a lot better than it looked after the weekend.

From memory, if we do Eastbourne or Crowborough its not so scratchy. 
Its been a long time since I have done much byway runs as been doing mostly competition stuff in the last few years.
After the weekend I have come to the conclusion that I miss it so maybe looking at a more sensible set of tyres for more
road/byway use!
My old green lane weapon of choice.

You would be welcome Matt, just keep an eye out for the next one on here and put your name down.
I would like to keep it to a max of 4-5 vehicles so not to upset the locals.

Just watched the video of the "scratchy lane" again and it reminded me, the last time I did that was in the Shogun.
Now that was a tight fit !!!

Lifted ready for new tyres.
Job done.
Sorry about poor picture quality.

Yes, but to be fair I did not care what happened to it. Bought it cheap, used it hard but it never let me down.
Did trips around northern Europe and even drove the strata florida in Wales in it.

Here are a couple more videos from last weekend. I will try and sort some of the others, but they recorded upside down so it will take a bit more work. I'm doing this as I'm putting off trying to polish the scratches out of my little Jimny...

Nice one Ben. Did you get some polite questioning from those walkers near the start of the first vid?

Yeah. They asked if we were lost, and when I explained we were out for fun, they said that it was brilliant and a great way for the 'little suzukis' to be used. It was good to get some good words from them.
