Off roading in West Sussex ?

[SimonV8ster]

Does anybody participate in off roading in West Sussex ?

Thinking about doing an overland trip with a 4x4 of some kind due to the terrain I might encounter but have no experience of proper off roading.

Trying to find centers to do it in and have tuition but wondered whether there was anybody on here I good go along with for a taster day ?

Or even just look at peoples vehicles so I know what to look for when purchasing.

There are a couple of off road sites near to you, slindons and boxgrove woods.

You can turn up in your own 4x4 vehicle or i believe they do driver days as well.

You could think about joining a club? Shire Land Rover Club is open to anyone, not just landys, and have regular pay & play days. The only restriction is that your vehicle must be MOT-ed, taxed and insured.

We're actually at Mannington in Dorset on Sunday and you can join on the day if you want to come along. There will be plenty of people there who would be willing to show you the ropes, and it'll be a safe environment in which to get to grips with the basics.

Interesting, I'm busy on Sunday so how often do they go there?

Haven't got my own vehicle yet. Spoke to a guy that does 4x4 training at the Boxgrove site so may have a go at that.

Are you looking for an off roader at the moment? I've got my 90 up for sale and would love it to go to someone who wants to actually off road it

Not looking yet, want to do a bit before taking the plunge !
