    over inflated tyre.. 82psi!!

    Nope, the sensor never tripped until i was just a few miles from home. I was wondering about your comment regardung rotational speeds.

    First run out in the Z.

    Could not get these to post above, sorry. The last one took a bit of effort as i had to drive up a river bed to get the shot. But if you have a 4x4 it should go off road!! Even if the local farmer shakes his head as you trundle past his croft lol.
