    G-wagens in the snow - Matroosberg 2011

    Hi Guys

    Thought I would post some pics of my recent trip to the Matroosberg in the snow. G went brilliantly.

    Left a 2008 Defender for dead on one of the inclines... I think there must have been something wrong with his traction control as the thing didn't want to go. Anyhow my wife wanted me to get a Defender. I think that has passed.

    Here are some pics of the scenery and some G wagen snow porn. We even managed a few runs on the snowboards.

    Nice munga, very nice, the snow looks even better with a G on it! You should get the sticker I have on my G "Land Rover Recovery Vehicle!"

    Ooohhhh...

    Be careful Michel - I had to get a Land Rover to recover me this weekend out of mud (off course - afterwords I had to recover him twice, so I don't feel to bad ) so never say never!

    Regards,

    Arnold
