I will let you know what it is like.

Actually some info on the Getabout training would be very useful.

Which Getabout course are you attending, is it the Drive and Recover?

It would be cheaper to join the RR Club or Land Rover Club and get your training from them, than do any of the training company coarses, both clubs do very good coarses, I've done the LROCS coarse and was happy with the training.

Enjoy your trip.

If I can get approval for two weekends in a row, how would you guys like a tag along D3?

Yeah looks cheap enough, have been considering them myself, might give them an email.

I'll keep an eye and ear out for you guys at Newnes, I'm travelling with 2 GU Patrols, one red, one baby poo brown

Ben,

Range Rover Club annual membership is around $220pa and memberships are renewed each July, I think so might be worth holding off and starting fresh for the new year.

Training is free to members however the club asks for a $25 donation on the day for their charity. Our main instructor is very very experienced and has done courses at Eastnor Castle and been a professional driver trainer and know the vehicles back to front.

There are various club trips run ranging form day trips to a few week trips as well as other trips to places of interest run purely by members.

Monthly club meetings are held at various locations ranging from tire places to Dealers to independent service places and Auto Repair shops. There is also a very high quality monthly magazine produced.

I have enjoyed being a member for the last few years as not many of my mates are into 4wding so this provides one avenue of getting out and about with like minded people who enjoy the LR brand.

Definitely not a hard core 4wd club but that suits me.

I should disclose I am the clubs current Education and Training officer so take this as a bit of an advert. (P.S I am definitely not the instructor referred to above)

If you want any more info please PM so I do not take this thread any further off track!
George
