Following on from the event thread here http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic28792-90.html, below are some more pictures from the camp4fun event in Germany at the weekend (NJF has posted pics in the event thread).
This is part of the site:
D3's from Luxembourg, Switzerland and Germany:
One up (userfehler I think ?); one down (a V8 ) and NJF in the middle:
As NJF posted in the event thread, this piece was a bit tight...
And just after this, NJF scrapes a sill...(can't remember if I said "plenty of clearance..." or "not much clearance..."
Andi cooking with the shovel...
And despite the expectation that it would be me...here is NJF nice and stuck...
So...NJF gets stuck...a D1 tries to winch him out...battery dies...I pull them both out and then NJF has to give the D1 a jump start...we drew a crowd with video cameras (including the one my son had - must get around to posting it...)
Luxembourg and Swiss disco3.co.uk contingent...
And NJF going over top at the place which (it seems) ended up scraping the underside of the front and rear bumpers.
The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...
Club "yes, I too have had the EGR's replaced..."
Club "yes, I too have had the compressor replaced..."
Club "yes, I too once had the car at the dealer for a couple of weeksnearly 4 weeksover 4 weeks...5 weeks"
Club "yes, I too have had EPB failure..."
Club "yes, I too get mysterious bings and bongs..."

Nice pics, JF. Are you sure you didn't get stuck, not even just for a short while?

I could reverse...
Besides - if it ain't on camera...it didn't happen...The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...

P.S. is there a specific reason to rub the number plates ? After all we have been at a official off-road park...
