Hi guys, been looking at this great site for a couple of days, and have now just bitten the bullet., and signed up... I work as an HGV driver, hobbies are Shooting, fishing,mainly sea...and some more shooting, and also some WW2 RAF ( mainly family) research.

Last weekend, I was given a crackin wee 02 plate Grand Vitara by a mate, to use as a shoot vehicle after it went for a pre MOT, it will fail it's MOT on inner sills, BUT, it WILL be back on the road this summer as it's too good to leave languishing on a farm. SO, expect lots of questions...I've only had it a few days, but have really taken to it...

My mate replaced it with a 54 plate car, almost exactly the same...:)

I've had a few 4x4's in my time, Mitsy l200, Challenger v6, Je ep, and L.Rover s3 SWB....but, was really impressed with this wee car...I took it all over the farm, and it never failed to get through...once its got a set of decent tyres...hopefully I will be sorted...:)

The car in question....I know you'll all know what it looks like, but , I just love it.....:)
