Lowered Vit, what you lot think?

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!

I've had a look through the build thread of that Bedford Rascal and I've got to say, I think it's great. There's a video of it near the bottom that's pretty cool.

I've got to admit, I'd love a little slamvan, I just think 4x4s generally look best standard or higher.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

I dont really mind what it is and how its done as long as its not standard.

4x4's love em high/big but also love some of the slammed yank pickups

road cars/vans either need to be scraping the floor or jacked up for comedy off road use.

what I dont like is all this plastic shite from halfords stuck to pissy french hatchbacks.

Low-look body kits I can *almost* live with. That SJ has been tastefully done. No-doubt it belongs to an American. Most modders in the UK are tasteless slap it on and head down to McDonalds kids.
