Stupidity in a Suzuki SJ - non VAG idiocracy.

plenty of muddy goodness!

That looks like so much fun!.... I want a go!

Sunday's damages seem to be:

Snapped main rear leaf to N/S
Clutch finally decided it's had enough

Being a good little thing it held out well after the chap who'd bid £25 for a couple of hours in it to MacMillan Cancer Care.

He came back and asked 'is this the only one you hire out?' 

New Series Land Rover transmission mounts appear to work well though, which is nice.

not bad considering the abuse it gets

You (still) have no idea. 

Next time you're in the shotgun seat.

Whilst it is amazing, it now needs work, which is what started last night - replaced a rear spring and started work to replace the clutch, which is also FUBAR.  Naturally this is all a couple of days before the first trial of the year, which I probably won't make  .

Least it not as if you got a 450 mile journey to get to the trial

This was out for the first time in 6 months recently.

Clutch cover had to be replaced because the fingers had lost their spring (odd).

Spring had to be replaced because it had snapped.

Double driven at the last event and great fun, as ever.... even if it did over-heat (turns out I REALLY need to clean the radiator out!)





Nearly over!





Gave it something of a birthday tonight - 3/4 tyres now have tubes in them so we can run lower pressure and the bloody things won't go down overnight, either!

Need to re-apply the fourth inner tube after pinching it on fitting - patch needed already.
