jules Posted October 2, 2007 Author Share Posted October 2, 2007 I drove if off road at a friend lantra approved track and its odd its soo much smoother than the 90 although its a RRC it is 108" wheel base.

Corrode Finger Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Despite every bugger taking photos every time I got stuck, I had a great time too. To be fair, apart from Richard attempting to have the first vertical takeoff Dlander, you were providing the most entertainment! Even though my truck did not make it out, due the damn brakes again, i had a great day too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miketomcat Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 i know how easy it is to fix theres no problem there but this engine has now blown 1 head gasket, snapped 3 belts and 1 timing case so i think theres a more serious problem. each time the belts snapped it's only done about 10000 miles and 6-8 months hence i'm now looking for another engine mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
