Hi,
Just joined today,have been reading the forum for a few days..
I am starting to build an offroad trailer and there is not a lot of them in scotland,,in fact i have never seen one on my travels.
they must be soft over here and use caravans,lol.
I drive an 80 series Landcruiser and a Land Rover 90 Truckcab.

G'day & Welcome George, glad to see you on here.

Two nice looking trucks there, particularly the 80. My wife is very taken with the picture of your 90 cming through the mud, and says to be nice, in case we need somewhere to stay if we ever get to Europe  ;D.

Hi Geo,

One half of us is Scot...bet you can't guess which half ;) . We have never seen a CT over there either...heaps of caravans though which may have something to do with the weather lol.

Welcome!

Och hoots mon, ye'll nae find a better bunch of blokes and sheilas if it's questions aboot trailers ye have.

Just kidding mate, welcome and blame my Scots parents for my levity.

There is a wealth of information on this site BUT beware it becomes very addictive reading the trailer builds and trip reports in particular.
