Silver stars

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Yeah me too, in fact x2 of the previous owners were SCUK'ers (or at least had an 'our car' page) I tried contacting someone on facebook who I thought might have been a previous owner but heard nothing back,

The SJ was bought out of the local ads paper, the Samurai was bought off a bloke who my Dad worked with. The other 2 are ebay specials.

Mine came from a guy about 4 roundabouts from where I now live.

He said it was his pride and joy camping vehicle and would hate to see it cut up and modified.....

Maybe I should go say hi. At least the cutting got rid of the rust!

Mine came from a guy up the a23. And he had to sell it as his missus hated seeing it on there front garden.
