Took a run in by Experience 4x4 near Inverness yesterday for my first outing offroad in the G. Was good to see how it handles and I was well impressed with it's abilities. It's a beautiful location in a seldom visited part of the country. A couple of pics and video attached:

Re: Experience 4x4 inverness

Thanks, it was a great afternoon. Midweek was a good time to go as we had the place all to ourselves. Their adventure course is very manageable with a good variety of obstacles to test you but not put the fear of god into you, they all have chicken runs if required too. Low range was all that was required for that part. They also have another area called the zone which is more for modified vehicles - winch and lots of ground clearance required! We ventured in there in order to test out the diff locks and thankfully they all work as they should! Didn't explore too much of it as it's a bit beyond my skills at the moment! Also need to aquire some accessories for using the winch.
Would love to get involved in organising a trip up here, would need some help though as I fear my limited knowledge of suitable places to go offroad may hamper the enjoyment!
Cheers
Dougie

 Dougie,

Have you thought about all those nasty UV rays de-naturing your very expensive spare tyre...? @@Smiley's not working!!!

It would be nice to have to worry about UV rays where I live
