    Just paint your boat with Repsol colours, put a nice helmet and riding gear, and when go fishing you will feel like you riding :)

    An Evinrude 2 smoker ? :thumb_ups:

    Its raised a bit with decent shocks and a 2.6L Sigma (I think) motor with extractors ..... it has 235/75/R15
    Its looking a bit ragged these days (just like its driver) but it still turns a few heads when it rolls around corners on a lean and Eddie Vedder is rattling the windows :D
    It wouldnt win too many 4WD awards but its great for travelling about in.

    I've always wondered how they would go. It's must hammer with a 6 in it.

    Yea only a 4 but its pretty nimble all things considered .... motor is bullet proof .... whereas the gearbox is rubbish.

    Try pushing the pedal on the left when you change gears, gives an easier life to the gearbox. :lolsign:
