Might have a new plan? What do you lot reckon?! :)

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'd be inclined to put it as a rolling shell using running gear from a breaker Sami. An stick the kja lump and box in. Would think you get more money for it.

Well there's quite a few rotten ones around! I'd take all the good bits off yours and then just use a load of bits of one you break to get the tin top on the road and sold on, would easliy fetch over a grand if it had an MOT on it.

You've gotta make this one road legal too :rockin:

Gotta ask though why are you so bored of yours already? You haven't take. It out a huge amount of times have you yet? Or are you just getting the urge to build another one? :lol:

I am not saying I am going to do this like tomorrow, il keep on using mine all the time I am finding one and restoring one.

Then make the decision what way to go with it. Mod it or sell it.

Food for thought anyway :)

Not sure why I am bored of mine, I am sick of play days, if I challenged it maybe that would spice it up a bit. But again I need to think about what to do. Don't have much time or money at the moment to do anything really lol

Build a road legal truck. Then it opens up green laning too. No trailering it there and back. No entry fee. Just fill it with juice and off ya go.

I'd love to do a greenlaning / camping weekend.

Hopefully do a play day next month. Be modding it in march then hopefully hitting the lanes hard in April!

Get rid of the Navara, lol.

I just use my dads Navara or vans and stuff for moving/collecting/delivering stuff.

Think i'm going to have to hire a van to collect all my gear though. All of his trucks are open backed and i don't wanna leave it parked overnight on show incase someone steals anything. Like 5 alloys or my pristine bonnet, thankyou very much.

Wife works for northgate *discounts* :lol:
