Re: Suzuki's to the rescue...
Glad to see that ended well.
I'm not sure what some people think. Whether it's quattro drivers or range rover. Just because its 4wd it doesn't mean you can go anywhere.
All his electric automatic sensor garbage. Basic is better! Lol plus the £1000s we've all spent and the many many hours building.
Ok, so the cold air almost stopped my fun, but 10minutes of tinkering and we were away again.

Re: Suzuki's to the rescue...
HAHAHA! Four wheel drive only helps you get moving. You need decent tyres to control it.....which I don't have.
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Well i only had 1 bow shackle that would fit the recovery eyes on my rear bumper and i had to use that on the audi. So i just looped the rope round the end of my bumperdazerede wrote:

Re: Suzuki's to the rescue...
Ha ha. Love it. At least Ferris knows the bumpers ok.
As long as everything was stamped up and marked correctly. And he worked out the EP. Lol
Suzuki - approved recovery - "of course it's ok, i bolted it on"

Re: Suzuki's to the rescue...
Gave my bumper its first test this weekend
As you all know this Landrover was stuck in a couple of inches of fluffy snow on the side of the by-way.
I had to drag it for miles while smashing through all these big snow drifts to the sound of the A-Team theme while Scottie was giving covering fire as a whole squadron of soldiers came over the hill flanked by 4 Apache gunships......

Looks like he's pulling you out backwards. You'll have to have a word with the photographer. Must be the angle they're stood at.
