Default Hi from Chippenham, Wiltshire

Hi All,



I'm Mario in Chippenham, joining Wessex 4x4 Response.



I have a Pajero 2.8 TD SWB, I've had it for 5 years and love it, it never runs out of grunt. Kit on board includes a full set of snow chains, a hand winch and a farm jack. Recovery points front and rear, it's nice to be able to say I've used the rear one more often than the front one (but we all need help sometimes, don't we?) The hand winch reflects my "Keep It Simple" approach, the motor's never given up on me yet! I must admit though to lusting on hydraulic winch web sites.



I'm an ex-army driver of many years, so have had oodles of fun doing all sorts of terrain and consequent recoveries. One of the units I was with specialised in cross country movement at night, so you can imagine the scrapes we used to get into. Now it's time to put some of that experience to use.



Cheers,

Mario
