So much to see (and buy) at this huge  event, with loads of interesting 4WD  stuff to appreciate

 

All the details of a cleverly modified and successful winch challenge V8 Hilux. A few ideas, maybe…?

 

We get properly stuck in deep sand to test this ‘total extraction & recovery device’. Essential kit

 

How to finish one of those jobs you’ve been putting off

 

Articulation and a good ride: time for an upgrade? We shop around

 

A different route through a familiar area: one of the reasons we own 4WDs

 

A Kiwi couple drives 4,700km to Normandy in a restored WWII Dodge to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the landings
