Have to say that looks like a great day. I've done those tracks on my motorbike but must get signed up to do this in the Disco.

An excellent family fun day out [not forgetting the dogs]! Wish there were more wide lanes like these in Essex.
Big thanks to Neil for organising, being Master of Ceremonies and also for being one of I think three Official Photographers! Good to meet up with Countrywide and Discoagogo for the first time.
You missed out big time today Jason!Clubs Mantec, Tasmods, LEDS, AT2s on 18s, Maxxis Bighorns on 17s, Remote FBH, BAS. ReMap, BSS., RLD Personalised SWP., Safari Snorkel, Faultmate, Three Musketeers & MUD

not much of an attempt at a controlled bow wave really - people live and learn (as I did )Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

It's not as bad as it looks actually...as I found out a couple of weeks ago...
But I think the other water won't have made as much a mess of the engine bay...
It looks like a great day out. We do not have the possibility to drive green lanes in Luxembourg which is a real shame...The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

I have to say I took it easy through the water and it wasn't too deep to the left, but how that Shogun survived I have no idea .

Wished my D3 was with me, took it in after servo works, and brakes were binding. Took it in early Saturday, with arrangments made to collect daughter in Chessington 0900, and then onto the meet. Poxy D3 did'nt get out of the dealers.
Went n got the Jimny and off to chessington and Pompey for the day. No way would SWMBO let me take the Jimny though.
Next time Neil, definately

But that particular picture with a bit of Photoshop would be certain calender material in my opinion!!!
to the photographer!
