I’m pretty sure that grating the wheel rim against the rock at around 0:22 is detrimental....

Depends if you worry about scratches or not.
My car have scratches and dents and will continue to have them.
I try to avoid it of course..:)


If and when I finally get my hands on my nice new Jimny, scratches won’t be a problem as:

(a) I intend to fit the “All over bubble wrap” accessory from the official catalogue, and,
(b) if I do go green laning, my wife will be walking ahead with a pair of hedge trimmers.

..at least for the first week.....
