Great shots Ben and nice to meet you at last! It was a blast to drive up to Ding Dong mine and play in the snow. Being relatively new to Syncros I was amazed by how capable they are off road. The gnarly hill we ascended measured a cool 33 degrees - a 1 in 3 gradient - and was covered in snow, rock and ice! It took three attempts to make the hill, but Dan pulled it off first in his 16 Doka, followed by me (again on the 3rd attempt) in the 14 Single. Long live the 'End of The Road Syncros'!

Great Syncro Snow action shots fellas. Keep em coming, they're spurring me on to crack on with the Doka project regardless of the temperature in the garage. :mrgreen:

Mine is the white one, the red one is Keeno's (and is for sale).

The other two belong to a friend of our's ... not sure if he's active on here.

I don't have any more photos of the high top. It's a 16 panel van converted via a Westfalia Joker 2WD donor.

Video footage to follow :D

I think it's intended for a 2WD van - puts the impact point further forward, which I'm not keen on (although it has never been a problem). Not sure where they're available from - it was already on the van.
