What ever you take you will break something else.

I just ragged my rear springs while laneing (one snapped, one badly bent). Best just join a recovery service, or take it on a trailer.

I haven't got anything to tow a trailer with lol, my rear springs are knackered anyway so they will get replaced before I take it anywhere offroad, that's the way it is, take loads of spares and nothing will break, don't take spares and it all goes wrong lol

I'm with RAC and I'm not sure if they'll recover me if I've been off-roading it, would probably have to get someone to tow me to a jet wash then dump me somewhere so I could ring them lol she should be okay anyway I'll make sure it's all in good shape...

The back end of mine is in a similar state. My tank guard needs replacing.
There's three ways of doing things:

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

The AA have recovered me from outside off road sites before haha

Once it was so muddy, and pissing down with rain that i resorted to "washing" the car in the rain before the guy showed up... didn't work so well :lol:

I will be trying that corner again next time, should at least have 31s by then so might make it a bit further :D
