Well i thought i would post a few piccies of the reason why my corsa aint as fancy as it should be 
I bought this boggo standard, leather, air-con, diff locks the lot.
Wasnt long before i had some goodies added to the truck -
Then started to venture into off-road pay and play days -
Here's what happens when your a novice to off-roading -
 
1 hour later and 8 off-roader's to pull me out the huge ditch i got lodged on LMFAO
A few extra's goodies got bolted to the truck to enable it's off road capabilities - A set of 2inch lift shackles, some longer heavy duty shockers, braided brake line's, diff breather pipe's (hose pipe), 1.5inch body lift shimming kit, a safari snorkel and a set of rather large extra trekker tyre's, newly painted black rims, optima red top battery and a roof mounted CB, oh yeah a few cheeky sticker's too ...

Well after having a full fat version i decided to diet the beast and go low fat 
I think you will see what i mean -
  
You can also see what bordem does when you have 3 cans of matt black paint lying around
A picture of the sand/bridging/waffle board ladders in the ustom made chequer plate housing -
Then a nice few final shot of the beasty dirty -
 
Plans for over christmas are, new winch bumper and plate, a nice high power fast winch with remote, new recovery equipment and poss a toolbox in the rear. Full exterior rollcage and maybe a interior overhaul.

Slight problem when your off roading with the L200's........
It's a good job we were out with my mate in his Vitara and his tow rope.....
It doesn't look much but it was a steep hill and the slippy mud was deep. It took about 20mins to get to the top but we made it and we were very happy.

A mate of mine has been in his Suzuki SJ, his Discovery and his brothers Series 2 with Range Rover V8, and says it was fantastic, one of the best places to go and just have a great laugh

Certainly a different vehicle to what's normally on here! I quite liked it before I think the back end looks a bit weird now but if I didn't know what it looked like before I wouldn't even notice. Got some bollocks to do that to it!

That is proper cool, if I had somewhere near me like that I'd definetly be interested in an off road bike!
