Hi peeps,

I've been trying to find somewhere that does off road experiences around the North Kent area. One that doesn't seem to be a rip off might be an advantage as well! Most I can find on the net are about £80 for a 20min drive. I'm really keen to get into 4x4 offroading (2 wheels I'm too dangerous!), but at that sort of price I just couldn't afford it! I would love to eventually get my own 90, but need to sell my current car and motorbike first to get a decent amount of cash behind me!

Can anyone help?

Cheers!

PS - I did try to look this up in the search, but nothing really came up!

Why is it Google never brings up the good stuff... Looks much better VFM than any I've seen so far.

Thanks!

I did one down near Canterbury - 2-3 hours I think, sub £100...

Was with True Grip - www.truegripoffroad.co.uk

Spent a good couple of hours wanging around in their 110 then took my last 4x4 round for a while (won't admit to what it was....)

Well, if someone would be happy to take me for a ride, that would be great!

I do have access to a Landy at work, but I dont think they'd be too chuffed, and I suspect it's not as capable with its 'modifications'...!

acturlee - Salisbury is about the best place to offer someone else a try, as there are numerous bombholes that yu can drive back and for thru.

Cool! Thanks!

When are you next there? I'll see if work will let me borrow the rescue truck, but I highly doubt it!!

Aye pop down. I think I've got a shotgun passenger but you're welcome to jump in the back or I'm sure tigger will let you ride up front. And ya more than welcome to have a good drive round!

If anyone can suggest some suitable venues in North Kent (or thereabouts) I'd appreciate it - must be non damaging and suitable for a chelsea tractor on road tyres though...

I guess the responses will be along the lines of "plenty of space in the Tesco car park" or "take it round a local school field as thats the best place for a Rangie" etc but hey, you gotta ask!
