BOATS, UCR's and Wet Roads was created by Funky Diver
So I've been having fun looking at various maps that I have for potential routes (for when my house sale goes through and the wife allows me to indulge).

Whilst I appreciate that green lanes to some are a closely guarded secret (understandably so to reduce the moron element) Fords however are fun (I do them all the time in the works van where possible :P)

National
Wet Roads - Website identifying Fords (the water type not the breaking down type) and driveable streams
TrailWise - The National Catalogue of Rights of Way
Northumberland county council's Rights of Way site

North Yorkshire
Link to NYCC "Out and About" interactive map

Cumbria
Heirarchy of Roads - links to BOATS and UCR's in Cumbria - Produced by Cumbria County Council and user groups, also tells you which OS Maps the related roads are on

Wiltshire
County Councils list of byways

I can dream can't I, lol.

The reality is, a project car was her idea, I've had one for as long as I can remember... Mini's, and the like... although my last a Mk2 Scirocco has been my favourite. I did concede we needed something a bit more economical for her to get to work compared to our XC90 (the family bus choice for people who have too many kids and a disliking for people carriers!!) so the modifications that are currently being budgeted for include 2" suspension lift, snorkel and definitely more aggressive tyres. It'll be more for greenlining than an out and out mud nutter, hence my search for coming up with the Wet Road link. :cheer: :laugh: :silly:

I bought mine when I sold my piaggio mp3 500 sport was so much fun to drive and on a car licence do actually miss it.... But didn't need to travel up town anymore so it went and I wasn't going to put the money in the bank to dwindle away so I bought the jimny and I must say it's fun so enjoy yours!! :)
