    I look at it this way, there are tinker proof cars......Bombodores, Foulcans and japorean cars like Pootrols and Kiundais, all boring but discustingly reliable and you dont have to do as much as check the oil between services.

    And then there are Tinker cars, Jeeps, Landrover, just about anything with the indicator stalk on the left or is made in europe or america.

    I think the tinker cars are better value as you dont just get transport but you also get a lesson in mechanics and in some cases survival in the middle of no where.

    Your bosses shouldnt be afraid of Creeps, they just need to understand them and sell them accordingly to people who will appreciate them.

    X 2 what about this

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeZFjjd8caQ

    1ltr turbo diesel running 25psi boost
    Push button semi auto gear box with auto 3 gears which are available in low and high range as well as reverse.

    3 locking diffs which are operated by hydraulic pumps on the axel output and as the axel spins it puts pressure on the clutch pack which causes it to slowly lock but still allow differential action.

    It is Helo transportable and capable of 95Mph and rated to drive on up to 30 deg loaded and can climb a 60deg slope.

    Interesting little machine built buy a company called Weismann Marine.

    Yeah not all that interesting until into it a little more.

    17" of wheel travel
    Near unstoppable over just about any terrain
    Plus what I added above

    I'd have one, I recon it would be a bit of fun

    Steady on Lou, it's not that much different than what Muddy mech posted as far as size go's.

    The whole damn thing is made from steel like you would have in a set of sliders.

    You dont have to like it but I think you would be pushing it to get your new Deefa, your Disco or your 90 through that bog on all terrain tyres as easilly as that is doing it.

    There are a few more vids on Youtube but Im not going to waste any more time on it.

    People say Im bloody negative.........oh yeah youve said that to me before and youve attacked me saying I was doing what your doing here.
