I am currently considering a change of profession to "cup of water carrier"
Most older vehicles are lacking in the cup holder department so I think you could do very well at that..however I hope you going to stay loyal to the original team?

I have difflocks but haven't got round to investigating their lack of function.
Aware of a lack of torque the diesels would have I opted for a point it right and run up strategy. Mud=Cool Points right?

Folded them forward so the co-driver wouldn't bump their arm or cup on it. Clever.

Ah...I see...I think the posts were longer last year as I recall the missus folding the mirror in to clear them..quite handy o have the mirror set up so the rear tyres can be seen too.

There was a presentation in the main hall next to the syncro display at 4pm. 2nd place went to the German(?) lady in the white single cab with the full length canopy and I came away with this
A nice ending to an enjoyable weekend.
