Fun in the Snow & Mud at the North East Quarry Play Day (11/01/26).

It was meant to be a trial, but the snow and strong cold wind meant it was unsuitable.

I got my 2 inch lift kit fitted today after it has sat in boxes since October.

Mind i had to get the garage to fit along with an MOT, the weather hasn't been good enough for me to do it.

will get a better photo tomorrow

To be fair i have only driven it 5 miles, 2 miles on the main road and the rest in 30mph. I didn’t notice any unusual handling and it drives and brakes in a straight line.

The few corners i did take it seemed fine, certainly no worse than before, which is what i was after.

Hopefully i will get chance to give it a good try over the next week. I can also start looking at new tyres and possibly wheels for off road.
