Hey Chaps,

Finally got out to Wales last weekend, what an exellent weekend. Not just a lovely calming and relaxing place but an exellent place for lanes!

Very proud and impressed by my Landy, was absolutley unstoppable apart from a near roll, leaking clutch master and EGR issue. First time doing some wading aswell - must remember to close the vents :banghead: - almost flooded my head unit....

It is very impressive what Defenders can do with near ease. Locals where not the most polite though! Whole time no Defender driver waved back! lol

Got many pics and videos which will come very shortly!

Overall an exllent weekend and will be planning more and more trips!

glad you enjoyed it, i love wales for laning.

Yeah the old water through the vents thing isnt good, but if water is coming in the vents then it will be in the heater matrix as well. id have a clean out in there annorl.

The locals up there driving defenders will be farmers, so they wont wave back because they dont know you. :lol:

But you know the

[smile]piccies or it didnt happen[/smile]

Nice one mate, looking forward to pics

Very few of the defender drivers wave back round my way, I have given up now just wave back if someone else waves otherwise you end up feeling like a right mug!
