navara rescue

just as i thought i was finished for the day, i got a call from my mate who was sent out to retrieve a stolen jeep, but it was down an overgrown track and jammed down a banking of an old quarry. what an advert for navara if you had seen where it went and how it ended up where it wasbut even better for the mog

Re: navara rescue

lets just say it was driven like a stolen car, i wouldnt of fancied being in it, it landed where you see it. and i mean landed!!that is at the top of a 100 foot slope full of gorse, they must of hit it at about 50mph, remember this is an overgrown quarry and in the dark. you could see where they had hit a hard mound then taken off sideways and landed there. the police would of never have found it if they hadnt torched it, the track was so overgrown, they must have known about it, lets just say after i went down then dragged it back up the track about 500yards the track is really opened up
