A propper Escourt driver wouldnt even worry about the ruts or ground clearance, due to the invincable nature of the car...
By showing concern for your vehicle we are able to see evolution at work!
All the best,

Ok nicely done, when we dry off we can go find the boat!
Went and did a reccy yesterday.........all I can say is. BUY T-CUT
As I'm sure you'll understand, in the spring plants tend to grow...a lot! Lol!
90% of the lanes I tried were fine, but I would like to pre-warn the shinies that you will pick up some minor scratches, but they wont do any permanent damage. A little elbow grease and they'll go no problem.
Its also very dry now, so little mud was to be found, Its a nice pretty route of about 3-4 hours, not challenging or technical, but some very nice countryside. No need for 4 wheel drive for almost all of it either.

Oh dear, not my shiny paintwork!!! I suppose I could put the kids on each front wing to push the vegetation out of the way!!!
Dan - dont wait for us - may well not make it for the laning but will catch up with you at the pub. I'm assuming noone wants to eat and that I dont need to reserve a table but we'll probably have to park ourselves in the garden as the tables inside will be busy if we dont book.
See you at the Jolly at 13:00 (buzz my moby if you're gonna be late!)

If we all meet at 0900 to 0930 on Sunday, we SHOULD get to the pub by 1300.
Meeting place is next to the Shell Garage next to Portway Industrial Estate, Andover.
Come along the A303 to Andover and come of at the Ludgershall Exit (A342).
Those from the east of Andover, come off the sliproad and turn right at r/bout towards A342 then take 3rd exit of next roundbout.
Those from the west of Andover, come up to r/bout and take the 3rd exit.
Directly next to Shell garage is TrimTruc. This carpark is where to meet.
