If you look in the distance, you can see three people walking away lol... No won't be them... Will it ? lol

We often see burnt out cars on Cannock Chase, another two last month and going back 15 years or more, you often saw burnt out cars on lay-bys
on the A11 in Norfolk. I put that down to boredom, summer only jobs, flat landscape and few trees lol Not sure what trees have to do with it though, we have plenty of those on Cannock Chase. :augie

Truck is looking nice bud :thumb2 good pic

Thanks for the comments, must done in 2wd, though used a bit of 4lo to show kids what other gear stick was for. Absolutely love this road, noted few off piste sections with boulders in place. 3 miles of adventure and think Mrs has got the bug again as don't think we've laned as a family since youngest was born.

Looped home via Surprise and gave them all a surprise by using the little BOAT into the carpark at Burbage Bridge, to be fair nearly grounded and had to pick route carefully as quite a hole in it.

Had a look at entrance to Lady Channings too as had word was closed but seemed fine with BYWAY sign in place and found a notice ripped off a post to say had been closed last Autumn due to a mountain bike run being made in the woods.

Last night found vids of Jumble Lane so definitely want to do it next time out, Lady C is more technical too, though only done it once after the big snow of 2010. Further vids of trail riders doing other lanes in the valley like Clough Lane.

Hi mate , does your rear bench seat (3rd row) split into two and have a headrest?
Mines an early 2001 LWB and has the basic bench seat and would love to know if the later terranos had an upgrade as mine is not very parctical (I have 4 kids and wife and their all their junk!).

If yours does then perhaps theres a way to convert mine?:nenau

Mines just a single bench seat.

Thanks for letting me know Ian, I see you have a beautiful 2004 model.

2 questions : does your single bench seat come with headrests and did you need a snorkel in your avatar picture where I can see some serious wading !

Cheers

That was on the Strata Florida dude!!! Was a good trip, Terranosaurasdoug opted for the deeper route and flooded his engine so we had to do some "roadside repairs"

Bring on the steam train!!!!

Hi. No, no headrest on the bench seat. I had no snorkel either. It's on the to-do list though. :thumbs
My truck was standard apart from 31" mud tyres.

he's getting the bug!!!!!!!

[Thomas-the-Terrano2]

had a 96 and 2004 7 seater, all have same fold up single piece rear seat. No headrests.

The Trol I had featured 2 third row seats that folded to side in a shogun and discovery
style. the trol's seats had holes for head rests though were missing in ours.

In the terrano we used graco booster seats, the type where you can remove the backrest
and has height adjustable integrated head rest cum seat belt guide. Good for upto about
eight year olds which is about all the leg room is fit for too.!

we've got atleast four of them, decided to standardise on design so can mix n match
bases to back rest.

pathfinder is a good 7 seater, larger seats in 3rd row, plus fold flat into floor, with spare
underslung but body encompassing that area the boot is twice that of terrano even in 7
seat mode. just another to consider.

Will do matey , I completely forgot about the Pathfinder.

I once had a long drawn out debate with a mate on whether the PF was a T2 replacement (like escort to focus) or was basically a Navara without the flatbed and nothing to do with the T2!

Never quite settled on an answer.:confused:

[Thomas-the-Terrano2]

I'd say though been out of my price range.


My only dissapointment in the pf is it hasn't sold like the t2 but that could be down to the overall shrinkage of the mid range suv market. Also I imagined there would have been more kit for it being as nissan worldwide family 4x4.

Suspect more folks have gone from t2 to kia sorrento than pf atleast as seen for caravan tugging.

The PF is just so over kill for tugging, so is the range rover Tbh.
