Hi from Oxon

Post by Arek » Thu Apr 18, 2013 10:14 pm

Hi all.

My 4x4 passion growing long time. I've been using motorbikes on and off road many years, but I'm always dream about proper 4x4 car ;-)
So now my dreams come through and I've recently bought Suzuki Grand Vitara for my wife every day commuting, and my weekend fun
Off-road with family is a great fun but I think will be even better with bigger number of people.
I found this forum with so many Suzuki users, so after some time finally I've decided to write something, and say hello!

I hope that I'm not alone in this area :D

Cheers
Arek

Thank you Darell for this avatar pic. Already changed :-)
Dan_2k_uk indeed, Swindon is very close.

It's not the best pictures. I've made them after very small test in some mud and grass (you can see some in pic). Unfortunately mud was a little bit deeper than I thought and finish was very predictable = tractor pulling off :-)

Thanks all you guys for welcome.
