Hi folks,
Just picked up a Surf so thought it prudent to sign up here!
For anyone interested my name's Josh, I live in sunny East Sussex in a small town just down the coast from Brighton. I'm a bit of a petrol head, always have loads of cars knocking around the place - think I've got about 12-14 currently spread between my house, my barn and my parents' farm... I do a small volume of car importing as well which means I often have some interesting Jap cars lurking around.
Anyway I swapped an MX-5 I had for a '91 Surf SSR Limited, it had no MOT so I stuck it in for one yesterday. It failed on both lower ball joints, the rear fog and a bulb, those bits are being sorted today and then hopefully I can get out and about in my new truck.
I'd like to do a bit of off road driving, so if there's anyone local who'd be up for showing me the ropes I'd be greatly appreciative. I'd quite like to make a trip to Slindon Safari but I'm worried I'll get stuck!! This isn't my first 'proper' 4x4 for the record, I've got an Isuzu Bighorn 3.1 that I've owned a fair amount of time, but that's never seen much more than muddy yards and fields as it's only on tarmac tyres on account of it being my tow vehicle. The Surf is on AT tyres so I'm keen to get stuck into something a bit more challenging!
Look forward to being a part of the forum
Cheers,
Josh
