Is anyone going to this event? was created by Back in Black
This has been drawn to my attention:
Thames Valley 4x4 are having a day at Broxhead on the 13th November, apparently its £30 per vehicle and open to non-members. I'm going and I promise I will do my best not to tarnish the good name of Jimny's (i.e. trying not to get wedged in again
!!)

No kidding!! The brakes seem to have taken a beating too (defo need a bleeding)! Also, I think breathers required before I try floating again! Luckily a friend who came with me knew of a ford in Borden, so me and the Landy in the picture above went and removed as much sand as possible that the jet wash failed to before driving home.
I was really trying to keep the good name of Jimny's in tact, only got stuck twice (winch required both times - seems to be a theme for my off roading). The car is quite clean in the photo's above, you should have seen it before the jet wash!!
You should hear the windows going up and down (
)
All that sand......

Hey Mud Muppet - did you drive by mid afternoon in a red Jimny? I saw one go by while trying drown mine!! I was hoping they were coming in - I'd rather be rescued by a fellow Jimny. Not that I'm ungrateful for the defender and disco that winched me clear 
Brilliant day, sorry you missed it.
