gonna take a guess at where that first pic is taken from....the byway that runs between Tarns Hows and Black Crag.
Lol - “you are one ugly mother....” classic Arnie
Have to agree with you there mate - I know they are spy spots, but doesn’t look great. You can’t polish a ****, but looks like they’re trying to roll it in glitter and tie a bow around it anyways, lol. Very awkward design.
I can’t honestly recall, but you could well be right mate - where you mention is certainly in the right neck of the woods.
We used this outfit, based in Windermere... http://kankku.co.uk , and we did get a car ferry across the lake.
Great weekend, you’re basically given the keys, an OS map and some rally style pace notes so the co-driver gets to give directions to the driver on the fly while you’re out green laning - ****** hilarious - laughed like a drain all weekend. Can recommend them if you fancy a quality outdoorsy weekend away with a mate.
Company is called Kankku as the owners hero is Juha Kankkunen - 1980s/early 90’s rally 4x world rally champ. Back in them days those Group B rally cars were proper hardcore, and rallying was SERIOUSLY dangerous. Group B was eventually banned in 1986 as too many drivers, co-drivers and spectators were getting killed. Those guys had big kankkuhunas. Kankkunen won world titles in the old Toyota Celica and Lancia Delta Integrale, both iconic classics (both pics below are Group A cars Kankku won titles in, after Group B was banned)
I actually had this Tamiya ‘toy’ model of the Celica - god knows what happened to it, lol.
Anyways, back on thread...
Oh my, something weird happened to me when I seen the Integrale, sigh, how I miss the good ol' days.Lol - “you are one ugly mother....” classic Arnie

Might take one of there's out instead if battering mine up
First job and start of the build thread!
Seats out, and cut the bulkhead/divider down, which when we get the seat risers fitted will allow the seats to go much further back for better legroom.
Rear folding seats in tomorrow night then just the seats to go in once the risers come.

I would say they are not arguments, just opinions lol, dads know best @MattSedgIts weird really, we were messing about till 11:30 with this and a new pressure washer being fitted, and everything me and the old man have done on it so far has ended in arguments, swearing and a late night, but still somehow enjoyable
Remember there are no such things as problems, just challenges. There are no such things as mistakes, just learning.
