Hi and welcome!

Mine's the mucky one to the right of Crotchrocket's piccy (normally silver-ish).

As regards off-roading, they're blooming competent. I'd recommend putting on some decent tyres, taking it for a run and then going from there. Mine has a slight lift from springs and some decent-szed tyres and will happily go anywhere a Lightweight Landy will go and a damn sight more comfortably. I get told off for "not entering into the spirit of it" when I complain about my CD skipping and the aircon being a little blowy when the Landy drivers are so shaken about they can hardly walk and covered in a film of dust.

Body protection is a pretty good thing to have given that the shiny bits and the see-through bits are the expensive parts to replace is you get things wrong. I had mine made my Billsons Steel in Kettering and they will still have all the steel profiles in their CAD system. More than happy to pass on Glynn's pohone number if you're interested...

I love mine and have no intention of selling it.

Alan
