| I confess I've shortened my waffles by about 12" as the D3 is one hell of a heavy beast and I'd rather use two overlapping on one side of the car or take a few minutes with a folding shovel than have a board go "bang!" in the middle of the tricky bit | |

| Right then!!
I now have 3 (way too shiny) sets of boards in the back of my motor.
Harold 1 set for you Jack, sorry mate. I keep going out and measuring them but TBH i've had a couple of beers and keep forgeting the dimensions by the time I reach the front door. I'll do it tomorrow.
I've got one set that are now surplus but they're longer than mine so unless anyone wants them I might have them myself and flog my ones.
And breath.....!! | |

| Unfortunately they've all gone. He had a bit a run on the last 3 sets he had. I reckon eblag would be your best bet, you could probably get them cheaper than the ones I have.
Sorry about that | |

Honest wills Sorry Bill, incorrect quote. Page 1:3:42 Being the owner of a Japaneeeeese vehicle, one should be prepared to assist those less fortunate and be ready to help the owner of a Land Rover 4x4 vehicle when it no longer has the ability for forward (or reverse) motion. For this we suggest you carry a full compliment of recovery equipment and, for the often, frequent, extreme conditions, a powerfull winch. LOL - I know, that's me, not only failed scrutineering, but probably banned from the rally ............. | |

| Waffles are there for resting on jerrycans. Make a great bench. Also good for holding down your roofrack. I've used mine a couple of times in anger to partially bridge holes that would have had the car leaning against a bank and to recover the Defender when Mrs Do$h rolled it onto its side avoiding an errant 7.5t truck. Never needed a winch though | |
