That's not a RIB...

Though the decal in the back window is sort of fitting.

Did you put an oil boom further downstream!?


You know what they say... if there is no oil under it then there's no oil in it.

Nice pic and vehicle there Mick, certainly a good way to wash any salt of the chassis.

I was a marsheling on a pot noodle challenge then with lads from disco3 forum but its a proper green lane anyone can go but if you do stick to the markers and walk the river as there is a big rock that can take your sump offin one section

Walkin it aint an option with my dodgy leg unfortunatly,although I could tread lightly and not worry to much with the sump guard, might look into that.

No not wrecking the courty side, it was an "organised" tour of the Dorset byways and we took along spades, saws and other tools, to make sure that the byways were clear to navigate and where necessary large bomb holes were filled in.
Great fun and a legal way to experience the sort of terrain these vehicles were designed to overcome. Other than some mud tyres and diff/steering guards, this Defender is standard and used every day
