So that your all up to speed.......
The Current Bug Out Vehicle “Soviet Joseph” was replaced by a fairly new Vauxhall Combi van, that I wasn't allowed to touch......
It served us well through out the snowy weather and was practical and in-practical at the same time !?!?!?
So it was decided that it had to go..... after much sulking and dragging of heels its now gone! on a plus note the new owners want it for a work van and promised that it wouldn't stay in such good condition for very long
months have gone by and arguments have come and gone. I was holding out for Land Rover an ex military Nato green project type of thing........But No Chance!!!!!!! Not Having It!
so... I started quizzing her about an SUV.... as long as its not a shyter, diesel, Land Rover or Nato Green, we may be good to go.... Aha!
Well fellas I've kinda Got my own way on this occasion
I'll be posting photos Of my new "Bug Out Vehicle" as soon as I can get my stuff together.

If your roughing it, Your doing it wrong

Nice one. Bought a 10-year old Roomster last year and very happy with it, but would have liked the Yeti a bit more. Let us know how it goes.
Re: A New Bug out Vehicle
Really lucky to find this one locally and V rare to see them being sold privately, I have joined the Skoda Yeti Forum (another one!) and their very helpful bunch, within 2 minutes of joining I was sent a PM with a print out of the fuse box and what rating sit where and what each fuse covers.... my first thought was oh shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit, what have I done, but then its was pointed out its not in the handbook and may come in use one day,
no recalls on my model and as its a Low mileage, full Skoda service, 1 careful owner purchase I'm confident it was a good buy. one thing I did note was its got these sun shades rather than tinted windows, I'm in mind to get a spare set and cover with skrim net to match the new Nato Olive Green, HEHEHHHEHEHEHHEHEHHE
