My friend is an eco-worrier and drives around with a roof-box on his car all the time. He can't be bothered to remove it, despite the impact on the emissions. Innocent lambs are dying, or something."take me to your leader"Comment

Used to do loads of proper offroading. Mostly around WElsh hill farms and the like, usually trying to rescue or feed stupid animals. Either use a MkII Landie or a Massey Ferguson and never get stuck. Only posers (or townies playing at being countrymen) use posh cars off road.Originally posted by Dark Black View PostSo nobody does any proper offroading or a bit of greenlaning to upset the ramblers then..?

And if you're going to buy a 4x4, get one with proper permanent 4WD so you can turn corners.
Blog? What blog...?
