no the guy definitley said his made had done a riftcar,........ he was driving a very battered up disco and was putting bits which had broken off his truck into the boot. when we went further up the lane there was more plastics from a headlite lense where there was tyre tracks off the lane but i couldn't swear that they had done it

looked like he was repairing his steering arm possibly from where he had hit something,.....can't understand why as the lane was far from challenging except where the off piste sections had been churned up..........but then you shouldn't be on those should you. didn't look like the truck had seen much maintenance in the past though.....snot weld and chem metal mostly

my disco could be described as a rift car, the wife can't drive it cos the seat is knackered and i can't fix it, caused quite a rift i can tell you
