I run 235/85/16s on my standard D2 with no clearance problems, as stated above not only does this give me a 2" lift over standard tyres it gives an all important extra 2" under the diffs. As for 300bhp/ton's comment about a standard defender being capable of tackling any green lane in the UK...

I'm totally confused! I had a few issues with my n/s rear lights:- no reverse light and intermittent brake light, indicator and fog light very faint. All o/s rear lights working fine except fog light. Reverse light was both bulbs blown, now replaced. Brake light had been bodged with a twin...

It would be very difficult to get your vehicle transported to Morocco. Part of the entry procedure involves the vehicle being linked to the driver's passport number, it is then almost impossible for that person to leave the country without the vehicle. It is also quite an involved process...

I have a handheld one but will try to get a proper one fitted before the trip.

Sorry guys, I'm going to have to cry off for Sunday :( Just been, firmly, reminded of a prior commitment that I can't get out off. James, I can send you a route if you want to lead? Or we can rearrange for any Saturday from the 30th onward, Sundays are going to be tricky for me for the next few...

I'll sort a route later and post up a meeting place and time, although I think outside the Bulls Head at Monyash for a 10am start sounds good. There is a decent cafe there if anyone wants to get there earlier for breakfast.

Ok guys, what's the plan? Are we still on for sunday and if so are you sorting a route James or do you want me to do it?

Im still in. Not booked anything yet but will sort meeting place when I do

That's good news mate. Sure there will be a passenger seat available on the 24th if you fancy a day as gate bitch :D

4 disco mods, wheels are sound and straight but paint is tatty. £50 ono prefer collection but can meet/deliver if you cover cost of fuel. EDIT, Sorry these are 7jj not 8j as first posted

In good straight condition with no dents or scrapes but could do with cleaning and painting if you want it mint. £50 ono prefer collection but can meet/deliver if you cover fuel costs

Sent you a message mate

Sounds like we've got a plan then :D Ade we're out this Sunday as well if you fancy it? Mostly easy lanes but I've chucked a few cheeky ones in to keep it interesting.

Sounds good to me.

The Ashbourne route did get done and was a cracking day out. Unfortunately some of the routes have got temporary TRO's at the moment due to the sodden ground so that's a route for closer to summer. I'm out on the 10th with this lot http://www.thed2boysclub.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=48383 you may...

These are guys who will be driving down in overland prepped 4x4s and carrying their own spares so an extra steering box shouldn't be a problem. I come through Tanger Med or Ceuta 3 or 4 times a year carrying the luggage for 8-10 bikes along with various spares and tools and have never had to do...

Have you thought of putting a post on http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hubb/ to see if anyone from the UK could bring you one out on their travels? I know there are a couple of guys heading down to Gambia next month so would guess they will be in Rabat for their Mauritania visas? I would be...

Good news on the face of it but PDNPA are still pushing for a permanent TRO on Hurstclough Lane due to perceived issues with drainage/damage, archaeological reasons and safety issues amongst others. Despite the BOAT status we're not out of the woods with this one yet :(

Not quite!!!!!!! IMO,a few pluses for a hard top roof tent. It goes up in less than 2 mins. Once you get the hang of it a Khyam will be up and pegged in 2 mins or less. Your bed is ready to climb straight into,as all your bedding is stored in the tent. That's true but I'm not a big fan of...

The main question has to be why would you want a roof tent for camping at UK events? For the price of the cheapest, nastiest roof tent you could buy a much larger ground tent and top quality sleeping mats/cots. Roof tents are ok for expeditions where a smooth level pitch may be hard to find but...
