Seems an odd coincidence that the contour of the gate post seems to pretty much match the profile of the Disco?

WP0083 etc are just waypoint numbers. To plot a route in mapping software you specify waypoints and the software connects them with a straight line.

Since very few roads are straight lines, you use a lot of way points to approximate the route.

You could call the waypoints anything you want but typing a name for each one is tedious so I just let the software auto number them.

Hitting the same rock twice is unlucky.... hitting two different rocks is REALLY unlucky! Big Cry

The 20" alloys do seem very vulnerable to scuffing. I just patch mine up with a dab of hammerite - one day I'll get them refurbed....but not yet.
