The Saturday drive is our normal drive through the great tracks that Ian & Marion, Bill & Annette have work so hard with the forestry commission to allow us to do this.
So they have to make people aware that your car may be damaged on these plantation tracks.
Not only from trees to each side of the tracks,as some of them are not close at all to trees, but the ruts are deep, the climbs are steep, the rocks are sharp and the ground will be very slippy with all this rain we've been having so there's more risk of sliding if the cars not kitted out properly for the tough terrain.
I used AT's on my first ever outing in my RRC and was pulled most of the way round due to my differential scraping along the centre section as my truck did not have enough clearance.
A DISCO 3 I believe is 2.7 ton in weight, so for a section called the plateu, there would be no chance of it getting through it without major concern.
We never leave a vehicle behind,but we also have to access the risk factor at the same time that certain trucks may pose.
There is a few tracks I would say the Disco would be fine with as they are similar to green lanes etc, but the majority of the tracks would cause scratching/denting if not driven with extreme care.
The choice would be yours Stuart, you may find a spare seat with someone on the drive if you decide to venture up to see for yourself what's involved.
Always a friendly face waiting to greet any new comers
Hope that helps
