That looks like the kit I was asking about recently after seeing it at Eastnor.

It looked pretty good in the flesh and with the name now I can find out some more details  :)

Saw it in the flesh at Eastnor.

Nice piant job, but the general finish was atrocious. Apologies to the guy if he's reading this but it really needs looking at. It would certainly fail ARC / AWDC / MSA scrutineering on sticky out edges.

Shame because it could have been the Plastic Dakar for the nu generation otherwise (if you like that kind of thing).

cheers

I looked at them at the LRO show, to much fiberglass for me. As soon as you touch a tree then the pannels will crack!!

Not my cup of tea either. Saw it at Peterborough at the weekend, and at Malvern I think and it just didn't float my boat!

Years ago, there used to be a large UK buit vehicle called a Land-Ranger.
It was roughly the size of a 78 Cherokee, I've still got a copy of 'Off Road & 4 WheelDrive'magazine somewhere in the snug that featured it

As far as I can make out, it's not the same outfit that make the Long Ranger. There is a feature on them in the September issue of LRM. They do bob tailed rangies and have a very nice special. Cross between an off roader and a Lotus Super 7. That I WOULD like. :D
