newbie saying hello

leet · 30-12-2010, 20:46

Alright guys and gals, buying my first offroader tomorrow as i have always fancied having a play in the mud and never actually got around to trying it. Im getting a 1998 SWB Maverick which i believe to be pretty much identical to the terrano? Its an intercooled version so hopefully ripe for a bit more power.
Hopeing to get a lift kit on almost straightaway and would love to go for some 33" tyres. The truck itself is going to be a blank canvas as the previous owner has painted it in white primer for some unknown reason so looking for ideas for a colour scheme. I'll be painting it myself and doing any other work required myself too. I live near basingstoke so not to far from salisbury plains too which i hear can be good fun.
I expect there will be loads of questions to come but for now, thats me
