No longer an Off Road virgin!

I finally got the beastie off the tarmac this afternoon at a friends farm up in Mottram near Glossop - he took me on a 45 minute thrash round his acres of basically moorland heath - him in an ageing D2 with me following!

It wasn't particularly muddy but we had a great time - the car is awesome!

Mrs N. was not best pleased Wink Even though nothing got broken!

A few photos to follow... Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

Nope - it wasn't worth getting one though - unbelievably (for the North West) it was not wet enough to get splattered at all.

I'm not bothered though - there were couple of bits where I could have got (expensively) in trouble if there'd been any sideways slipping at all Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
