Ha you were assuming this was G related

G’s do of course have rubbish articulation.

This, however, proves absolutely, irrevocably, beyond any doubt what so ever that I AM the best 2x4 driver……………….ever :-)

Re: Rubbish Axle Articulation

What can I say Huss.......................Skill some of us have it and, well? There must have been at least 200mm of air :-)

Not Italian yet Chris. Specially ruggedized lease car. No way would I take my own car up that track :-) Some serious mud further on as well.

Christo, I’m sill king until I see photographic proof :-)

Re: Rubbish Axle Articulation

Don’t know about their axle articulation but I’ve watched one of the old versions being used on rtv trials and it probably would have made a G look silly

Don’t laugh but I have the occasional urge to get one of the new 4x4 ones

I’ve driven hire car ones on holiday and they are fun and very competent

Re: Rubbish Axle Articulation

Doesn't Jusus have one?

I had an 2x4 panda when they first came out in the early 80s - brilliant in it's day, all the seats went flat to make a bed, just like the old maxis;)

Re: Rubbish Axle Articulation

I remember the Maxi - brilliant  car, just rusted to pieces tho.

Worst car for clearance has to the the MB A Class (diesel).  Couldn't even drive over a 2 inch rumble strip without the sum guard scraping.  Had to be a design fault after the lowered the whole A to prevent it rolling.
