Luckily I Have One Of These (1 Viewer)

Good start to our weekend away at Winchester Christmas Market, our motorhome was stuck on the grass at home even before we left but luckily my trusty Discovery pulled it out with ease. Just a shame we can’t take it with us when we venture out in the motorhome

There are some small 4WD vehicles, which you could (Wait for it!!) "A" frame.

Is that your foot well mat I see in piccy one?? I have previously given serious though to an electric winch added to the van for such situations but I've forgotten the code for the lock on my purse

It’s the carpet out of the bedroom area in the motorhome. We took it out a while ago so thought I’d try using it under the front wheel but it didn’t work. A winch on the motorhome, what a fantastic idea.

Something on the lines of the winches mounted on some trailers or even a loose one you could use when needed such as https://www.waveinn.com/nautique-pe...IZxrGtQM6ugGSTZc8phoCfTQQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

I'm puzzled as to why you didn't put the tow rope on the tow hitch ?

Great idea as our motorhome is very unforgiving on wet grassy areas. The grassy area where it was parked was even pretty much level. So glad I have a 4 x 4.

Damp grass is not loved by many, seem to remember that from my much younger days, hey ho, nowt to do with mh's

I had to make the tow rope quite short so thought it easier to wrap it around the towbar bracket on the motorhome

Unless of course you mean on the back of the Discovery ?
The Discovery has a purpose built tow hook built into the chassis just above the towbar so you can still pull something even without a tow bar fitted

Tow ropes generally work as a spring, they stretch first then contract as you put tension on them. I learned that when I was in Highland4wheeldrive club up in Inverness.
I had a TD5 Defender that I used for proper off roading and got into some scrapes with it, all in good fun.

and can cause a whole load of damage when they snap
