Didnt come with one, so why the previous owner specced the ladder is way beyond me!! Cant see any battle scars from any offroading, so he must have been a bit of an urban commando perhaps? Have been thinking of putting a rack on, but need to go under barriers, and into underground car parks, so may well not bother.

Had a blast in one a few weeks ago, very nice. A little out of my price range though Im afraid! my local dealer (richard walsh) has been trying to tempt me with a new 6x6 frontier, but I just cant justify the ££££!

Great looking motor and location.
But.... RAI designer wants shooting. I think they look like some action man accessory stuck on with blu-tack
(I'll be out of the country for a few days whilst you all have a go at me )What if the "Hokey Cokey" really is what it's all about?

oooooh you bitch!!!! Mental note to self : Dont tow wolster out next time he's stranded in deep floods!
I know what your saying,It could have been made to look a little smoother in my opinion.But then I suppose its built for function not fashion.
