Cliff
Nice pics, the weather seems lovely as well. I'm curious about a couple of things, are those army michelins, 6" wide? and what on earth is the colour of your car on the V5..lol
:D the tyres are michelin XCLs 7.50/16s ,
on the V5 is green and black :mrgreen:
The tires look the business! How would you rate them for on-road behaviour..cornering, braking, etc? Or are they mainly designed for the rough stuff?
Sorry if that's too many questions, there's always more to learn!
Great pics! I especially like the wading. Where abouts was it?
M2dxb ,
XCLs were used by the Army on there 110s for years seem to drive fine on road a bit noisy but i dont mind that seem very good off road ,

Thanks for the link, I remember spending a good deal of time searching for a seller online but gave up at the end. Wasn't too sure about getting it though as most of my use would be on-road, though nothing seems to come close for strength, 8 plies! I hear if you pump them up to 65PSI you can take a 4ton load..ideas ideas. Unless I can make it to Duxford this weekend...
Enjoy the weather while it lasts!
:D cheers mate
Great pics, looks like an excellent weekend. The river and lake look very inviting, could have done with a nice lake at Eastnor, the pond there looked a bit rank.,
Looks good, shame I missed it. But then going to work was far more fun :evil: :evil:
Maybe next time. Whats that red and white thing on the roof doing in Wales :wink:
