If you are going away somewhere and don't mind meeting up with other Bongo owners or if you've been somewhere & want to tell us about it & stick up your photos, put the details here.

I had a fully loaded V6 with 18" alloys and parked up in Woodlands on Thursday morning in saturated grass. By Saturday the ground was a mud bath and the Bongo had sunk 3 inches into the ground. I thought I was never going to get out, but first thing Sunday stuck it into reverse and got straight out onto the hard road. Many people around me in cars, campers and caravans weren't so lucky.

I left on Monday from the bog that was Zone F, down at the wettest end, but Winnebongo, a humble 2ltr regular petrol gal. was raring to go and got out under her own steam (we got hitched up to tow, but she didn't need it) .. what a star!! =D> =D>
