Went with the family but with the great difference of not being in the car with wingeing children and the inevitable sick smell that accompanies family roadtrips with corners! insert image doesn't work for me Buzzin Edit: check the source for how it can work (just use the 'Embed Image' option from imageshack and choose Forum, copy paste that...works like a charm)

Thanks buzzin,
It's high summer down here with the big annual break from school, only the last 40kms was on a loose chipping road, on which due to the tropical deluge two days before, I learnt that it's alot less slidy when it's wet. Hence why in the nickel mines they have watering trucks constantly spraying the routes. The other bad sides are twice the tyre wear due to the heat and very rough roads, so far I've been waiting three months for parts, and this week I've got a 630km round trip to get new tyres at horrible prices. Not to mention the complete lack of any nominal fee recovery, if you can't fix it you pay full recovery cost!
Oh yeah did I mention the mosquitoes?
Plus the wife was giving me a run for my money in the AWD subaru in the photo.
