Phil, glad to hear it doesn't sound too bad. Might be worth taking the sump guard off and having a good look though. It might even be worth dropping the sump and making sure there's no gunge/sludge or metal bits (OMG lets hope not) in the bottom. Spydermans photos are great, we had a look at them while we were waiting.

yeah the recovery bloke was saying they have a common problem with that he said bout dropping the sump and by the pick up there is a gauze and that blocks up.
 
Can't believe that guy in the Disco that I recovered. Fitted with tractor tyres, so he's obviously seriously into off roading, yet he had no recovery points and didn't have a proper tow rope.:eek::eek::eek:

Yeah I'm with you on that one. Still was funny watching his mate first ram him then pull the nudge bars off. If ever there was a demonstation of why you need recovery points that was it me thinks.
 
nice one, really good to meet you all too and thanks for all the advice and info, think i enjoyed the recoveries as much as the actual driving :) ..
on ebay at the moment looking at what i can get for not much money, as i think i got of lucky not bending anything on mine, jetwashed it again when i got indoors seeing as it it belongs to he finance company technically!
please let me know when you guys are on some lanes or whaddon etc again and i may have my new toy
 
I didn't take any pictures of it. Too busy rescuing him, then dealing with my oil leak. It was a joke though, his mate tied a rope around the top of his bull bar, which promptly was pulled off, not before driving into it and smashing the headlights. I stayed well out of it, thankfully.
