Vehicle Grading

Vehicle Grading and Safety checks

We now require that every member's vehicles have an annual Safety Check in respect of their recovery fixtures, fittings and club gear.

Once checked out and passed, your vehicle(s) will be issued with a display sticker confirming it has been scrutineered and pronounced "fit" to attend club runs.

Our runs (see Events) all have Gradings; the stickers/Safety Checks are designed to coordinate with them.

The basic but essential recovery fixtures, fittings and list of club gear needed are as listed under the "Your Land Rover" link here on our website.

Club Approved Members for scrutineering: (as of Feb 2010)

Any of the people listed below will be able to scrute/check your vehicle and issue a sticker (either first time or upgrade as required).

Please note that we will have at least one Check Day per year where anyone can attend without prior arrangement.

If you cannot attend the event(s) you will need to make an appointment with one of the Approved persons; (Note: at THEIR convenience)

Multiple vehicles (lucky you!)

If you have multiple Land Rovers there is no requirement that each one has to have its own complete set of gear - but some common sense should apply in respect of attachments to the chassis (eg tow hooks).
