Re: Our SJ in Lakes, Yorkshire + Derbyshire Oct 08

Hi there, If I had thought about it I could have done some as replies rather than seperate posts, cheers for sorting it out for me! It just goes to show what a standard SJ is capable of. We had a great time, as the look of concentration on our faces shows! It took some real punishment too. some of t...

Re: Wheel spacers - good/bad?

I know you've put another engine in it but did you see it running when you got it to know it was not at least as bad,...
