That vehicle was on our watch list on eBay. It has disappeared from the list, I wonder why?

Best thing to do with that vehicle is to crush it, preferably with the bone head of a driver in it. After you have got the bone head to pay ALL the costs of recovering it, police time, court costs etc.

As far as I am aware there is no evidence in the public domain that it is the same driver!

If it is the same guy after paying ALL the costs crush him with the vehicle.

Indeed, but the link above claims it is the same vehicle...I can't tell as I can't remember the exact details of the previous one. Seems all a bit crazy in any case. 2011 110 USW

Well if the snowdon national park (AKA - oppression central) were around in the way they are now during the Victorian times, there would never have been a railway to the top...who would have thought it one of the 3 highest peaks in the UK with a visitor centre on it Mike

It was indeed the same bloke:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-north-west-wales-15387484

First time round I thought he was a bit of a tit; now he's done it a second time I think he must have something wrong with him? Particularly as he's still facing charges over the first attempt? Bizarre.

Bizarre indeed.
Funny how the first time around it was front page news, and now the rather odd and if anything, more newsworthy re-enactment is largely ignored.

Did the horseshoe a couple of months ago - bizarrely it was part of a business meeting! The potential client is an expert mountaineer and fancied a meeting up there! Really enjoyed it but while on this "knife-edge" ridge with a false move meaning death, I was a bit nervous!

Beltingly good roads around there - I was in the other car and had a cracking time! Some great Landy territory there too but it would have taken me rather longer to do the 400ish miles there then another 400 back! Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion.
