Yes matey If any one who would like to do this,and don't wont to take there truck off road. I have some spare seats going It is a such a easy run
Yeah easy.... haha when we went last year it was 28th november we had already had snow and everything was ice, the 'flat looking' ground wasnt that flat end it was like going over speed bumps designed to knock your teeth out (i was the only casualty with a broken exhaust) 1 good point the lads make is jas goes first to check things wont kill your truck i didnt have a snorkel last year and i thought i was gonna drown but the truck stood up to the water way over my expectations. like i said before I AM WELL GUTTED I CANT GO My advice is take a friend to co-pilot, when i went through water (the big one with lots of side to side action) i started slowing diwn and he reminded me to give more gas and go a bit harder. He also reminded me to close the window before we went in dunno what that says about me
If it ain't broke, fix it before it does!! You know it will!!

There is another thread on here about the Peaks it's the same day as this one and with the limited daylight and the distance I will have to travel Worcester is a lot closer so I wanted an easy life this close to christmas. I would defo be up for the Peaks in the new year though
I would prefer a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy. Seek not excess, God hates he who roams !

I'm sure someone could get you a tube of silcone from B&Q and a think sheet of perspex or even MDF at a push wrapped in a bin liner. I've done it mate and it take 15 mins to fit.

If you cant get the perspex just duck tape a bin liner over it. In fact I'd do that now just to keep the wet stuff out
