A Bit Mucky Out There
« on: November 26, 2004, 00:21:04 »
I had a brief trip out with the trailer late this morning. It was only a 3mile round-trip & the trailer was absolutely filthy when I got back (15minutes)

So it was out with the hose-pipe to return it to pre-trip condition.

However will Andy cope if the roads near him are as grubby?? :lol:

Am I sad washing the trailer & not the Discovery?

And, yes, that's the extent of the muck on the ramp-tail.

Just imagine what Andy would be like though, he'd have the 'Brasso' out :lol:  :lol:  :roll:

Not too fussed, just trying to let the galvanising 'weather' first  - supplying dealer said keep the salt off it for a while.

Mine was designed for er..................driving.

OK it has 4x4 capability, but it does do quite well on tarmac and I do tend to need it for this use.

Maybe we should have a ban on all 4x4's on public roads obviously they were'nt designed for this use  :evil:
