Another good day out, the wayfarer route was a bit tame, but a good laugh was had by all. It was a shame we couldnt have a proper blast of Nant Mawr Quarry, but ive got the bug now, cant wait to do some more serious off roading. All 3 landys ****ed the trails, and no real mechanicals which isnt bad since they where all ragged for around 200 miles virtually non stop, and have a combined age of over 60n years. ANy ideas where to go next.

garage for a tune up lol

Think that is what mine needs, as its running rich and im still high off the exhaust fumes that where leaking into my cab. I started seeing things at one point. Think we should plan a good wkend trip sum expedition sum where, not to hot on all the driving. How much fuel did you use andy, as I didnt see u go the petty station again. I reckon it cost me close to £70 for the day which isnt too bad, as my wheels are big and I was going flat out on the road sections, even got to 90mph at one point on my speedp, where I nearly lost it, shame its out by around 10 mph. Are you up for leigh quarry soon, going to copy u an get a roof bar too so we can go off roading in the dark.

funny you should mention the fuel i used just under half a tank which was 30 quid hehe not bad for a 4 litre v8 fella 189 miles i clocked up not bad ithink

£30!
30 litres fur 189 miles?
about 7 gallons?
about 27 to the gallon? from a 3.9?

Thats very good going, I would be lucky to get that milage in by 3 series. Do you have any ideas where to go next time. Did you get many oics of today andy.

am i getting that mileage woohooo , sent raz email of todays pics, just await oh an mad hat when i swapped it a month ago i put 60 in an got 340 odd miles so mileage is quite good i filled up used just under half of tank an done on my trip clock 189 today dont forget alot of it was m otor way miles if that makes any use ? but only when it goes round town or when i use it for work it swallows the juice on motorways doesnt move at all
