Anyone do 4x4 off-roading ??
 
Me and my mates will be purchasing a Suzuki SJ413 Samurai tomorrow that we won of Ebay.... :top:

Where do you go ? We've found a few places.... http://www.4x4driving.co.uk/location.htm , http://www.offroadroutes.net/ , http://www.woodlands4x4.ic24.net/

Who ya insured with ? Cause most places don't cover off-roading as they class it as rallying/trials :roll:

Adam_BlackRS 21-10-2005 07:56 PM

Paddy, http://www.woodlands4x4.ic24.net/ ..... there next one is on the 6th Nov.... we're planning to go to that one.... its near brands hatch

This is the one we've bought... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWN%3AIT&rd=1 :top:

Who ya insured with Paddy ?

His Range rover is an Animal lol,proper racer for fields etc,it's got leather too :cry: :cry: also has a Punto GT that he holed a piston on (getting rebuilt) a mk 2 Escort running a 2 Litre Pinto n 45 Webbers,a 4.4 Litre V8 Chevy lol ,a BMW M3 Conv(Estrol Blue :D ) a leyland Daf 16 seater Minibus...don't ask.....and a 4WD Saph Cossie,having a Full engine rebuild with anti lag etc :cry:

I've got my old windscreen off mine....4 spotties on the roof above the screen,wicked view at night! :top: not many spares left lol,dumped,broke,ble up/rotted alot of em lol

Paddy 21-10-2005 08:11 PM

Adam, I'm pretty sure thats the one mate near Reading :top: will see you there :top:

I'm on a traders policy mate seperate to this old bit of crap :cry: , but it's Joosters toy, he reckons he can get limited miles [5000? dunno :? ] from Tesco insurance for about £150 for the year? won't cover off road but for the price of the car is doesn't really matter if he rolls it over and leaves it there :cry:

As long as you're insured on road normally, I wouldn't bother about any "off road" bits as its only yourself and the local wild life you're likely to damage :cry:

When you go green laning, take a bin bag with ya :top: pick up all the litter you find and it keeps the farmers and ramblers off your back :top:

Paddy 21-10-2005 08:14 PM

Just looked at the zuki you bought :cool: thats gonna be a shit load of fun that weekend mate :top:

did you notice the seat we bolted in the back so 3 of us could go out for the day :cry: :cry: :cry: every time I stood up to "surf" the fucking dog was jumping in ma grave :cry: :cry:

Adam_BlackRS 21-10-2005 08:32 PM

WOODLANDS 4X4 OFF ROAD CENTRE IS APPROX 5 MILES SOUTH OF BRANDS HATCH IN KENT...... no where near Reading :cry:

Me and my mates used to have a SJ410 soft top.... just used it on my mates private land.... was sooooo much fun.

We can't wait to start modding our new one.... Snorkle first and then a suspension lift :top:

Cause we've bought it between 4 of us, we dunno whether to fit 2 rear seats or just leave it as a 2 seater and take turns

Paddy 21-10-2005 08:41 PM

Brands Hatch :cry: fuckin hell I'd have looked like a plum turning up there on me own :cry: my sense of direction is disgusting and my ability to ignore details is legendary :cry: :cry:

Yeah get 2 seats bolte in the back SO much more fun with a load of people trying to rock the fucker over :cry: :cry:

btw Eagles knows shit loads about the old zukis and all this off roading business, we should organise a PF mud thrash :cry:

Kevin Sharp 21-10-2005 08:42 PM
