1300 miles from London to Islay and back in 5 days. Included around 50 miles of greenlaning through the Pennines and the Dales with snow drifts 3 feet deep! Got through the remnants of storm Ciara, then Dennis on the way back. Had an ABS sensor fail (not ideal in snow and ice), a rear air suspension leak that was easily fixed and a panic at 6am before the ferry back when the battery had been completely drained overnight by the new heated windscreen. Other than that, it absolutely smashed the trip.

ABS is more hindrance than help in snow.
 
Breaking.. i mean carefully taking apart is always much easier
I agree breaking is always unwanted but not always possible...
I didn’t break anything during the repair...
But that can’t be said for the previous owner ...as the heater radio cover was already broken in two ..., I managed to get it back in
And it doesn’t look half bad...
Eye of the beholder and all...
Fan pushing strong now!!
