Nope as he had a Attitude on him and thought his jeep was the best thing in the world, plus i wanted him to be stuck so when i drove up again towing a car it would rub it in even more but he went back down and went |

Chances are fault was with the driver rather then the vehicle

 NO! Get your own wave with your own Japanese passion wagons. ===================================

yeah might have been the driver but i remember when a friend of mine had a R reg jeep and on the sun visor it stated "JEEP will not be held liable if this vehicle rolls over at speed over 40mph"
 , so im thinking both |

we had the same here, about 12" where we are. went out to jump start a vehicle and then ended up spending 3hrs winching and towing vehicles out of ditches and up hills. We had a lady going into labour and am ambulance going now where so something had to be done.
Whilst giving some guys a lift, who like another 30odd had abandoned their vehicle, i did spot some blue flashing lights in a field opposite the house. Dropped the guys off and came back to find the police had parked up their freelander in quite possibly the wettest field within a sq mile whilst looking for an HLS!!! it was upto the front axle! the annoying bit was the driver was very apologetic, his 'codriver' though wasnt even interested in helping to get the vehicle out! what was generally nice was people were thankful for the help, which i guess being stuck there for 4 hours would be expected!

i was a member of a 4x4 Response but then they decided they wanted to bill us to be members. i was happy to give my time and be called out and supply a vehicle but i didn't fancy the privileged of paying for that honour so i left. Cheers
