Hi all,

My new car is a Pathfinder and I'm looking forward to finding out lots of tips for making best use of it off-road.

My boys are really looking forward to doing some off-roading on it and any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone gone on OneLife Adventurer or similar "introductory" courses for off-roading that they would like to recommend? Also, on OneLife they recommended getting underbody protection for the car - where can I find out more information (options, costs) for getting this done?

Regards,
Angelo.

Thanks Graham.

Primary reason for getting the Pathfinder is that I can now fit the wife and four kids all in one vehicle. I considered buying a bus for a while...

But if I have something 4x4 capable then, heck, I'm going to try and use it!

Yes I'm afraid so Angelo

As far as underbody protection goes, TBRUK (http://www.tbruk.com/) supply front and rear skid plates for the Pathfinders.

Welcome aboard Angelo, you will probably find members quite close to your location if you have any problems . The AA patrolmen used to salute members, but here you get to call them a "Post whore" !!

Hmm... let's just say I didn't buy it for its looks or performance... If that was important, I'd have gone for the Volvo! I bought it because I need to seat 6 at least, (and the occasional guest) it was a very good deal, it was the most comfortable for the kids (I have 4...)

But now I got it I plan to make the most of it. Let's just say I won't be using it for the school run or to pop down to the shops!
