hi Adz, nice pix, thats for getting the troll in at ashbourne, sorry didnt speak before
setting off in other party you certainly seem to have made the most of your trip
north. did you do houndkirk too, trying to place the open moreland twister shoots
bordered on one shot by trees?

Daved thought you might like the tricked out GC thought of you moment i saw it,
nice guy the owner think called Phil from MC, Notts area, 4.7v8 auto i recall does
around 16mpg as his second vehicle to works van! the tyres were 245/75x16 mts
though not sure if or how much lift on it.

A standard 4x4 would of done it easy as on some parts where it was extreme there would be a 2nd route for standard 1's :thumbs
&
As long as you have 1 well prepared 4x4 out in the group then you should be ok :thumbs

They take alot of shit before breaking,touch wood :doh :augie

The mouve Jeep only had BFG all terains on & shocks,he only got towed a few times...:bow

Colin & myself have done parts of the Sarn in standard mode :thumbs

I do have loads more pics but it will take way to long to post them all

Yeah the other Jeep was very nice with some trick bits like the WARN WINCH & BUMPER COMBO :bow

Thanks to Matt & the other chap whos name i've forgot :doh in the V8 Disco we did go on to other lanes :sly :augie

Colin & Pete know what i'm like :augie :sly :naughty
Just cant get enough

first time out for the troll, on h/t tyres, did many tracks in first hi box 2wd,
mind they were rocky/hard and dry. few breath in spots, gate posts etc
but only dropped out at taddington area due to time, wife and 2 year old
had enough for one day.

will have to get it over houndkirk as to me its the definitive derbyshire
rocky lane. then of course theres pindale and monsaldale. not the hardest
but personal favs.

was nice to see so many different trucks, standard to modded all working
well.

2" lift but didnt really notice to be honest :nenau
Fully bash plated underneath :naughty
BFG A/T's all round
& that was it
Just plenty of welly & the odd toe here & there :thumbs

The silver 1 on the other hand :bow
Well modded but not by the current owner...
A french bloke bought it,modded it with all the top name/brand toys,done 1 road trip & sold it
Still now a English man has a bargin & can use it for what its been made for :sly :naughty

in d with brake off just tootled thru it all, just like we did with a standard troll,
