That will get you hung up on something and get you stuck.. Looks like it would make a good boat anchor

It'll be fine for now, once I get my new winch bumper it'll be going and the NATO will go onto the bumper itself.

The towplates tough though and its not gotten me stuck yet

I've put my Disco into Autoland for a service and MOT. Drove through the sodding school run to get there! 7 miles in one hour! Oh how I love living in the South East!

just looks to have weathered about the same as marine grade and a damn good personal touch and does look to have that nautical essence to me

and besides i had to ask as with your reputation bucky i seriously thought it was something to attatch some kind of shooting platform to

I do but a couple of um have a tiny bit of Rock rash. Still got 7-8mm of tread left though.

The main reason was i got the BFG cheap and i needed a set of tyres to go on the mach 5's so i thought id give them a go.

I will report on the difference after sailsbury.
