Lisa Pemberton Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Hi there. New member and Absolute newbie! Driving a Black Pajero, 2010 with front and back tow eyelets in PWO. No safety equipment yet, plan to purchase medical kit and flag today if I can find them at Carrefour? Currently only have a mini camping shovel. Drove once in the desert and in perfect rookie style got stuck cos I never deflated my tires. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran McKeown Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Hi, Is it possible to add my name to this list? I had difficulty with RSVPing before the event closed at 9am. I have a Renault Duster 4x4 with ground and rear hooks in PWO. Alternatively, is it okay to join one of my friends who is already attending? Warm regards, Kieran 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaurav Posted July 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 @Biju Abdul @Heisem @Edgar @MlHazim @Lisa Pemberton @Siobhan @Kieran McKeown Please make sure you buy the deflator (or lean to use key to deflate) and tire pressure gauge to check for 12 PSI. If you can buy the radio, flag and shovel, fantastic as its a must requirement for all off-road drives, if cannot for the first drive (borderline exempted) you HAVE TO buy for the second drive onward for sure. 2 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

Lisa Pemberton Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 I'll get the minimum required for this first drive, just in case I'm really bad at it and decide it's not for me! Any tips on where to buy this stuff? Any hardware section? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaurav Posted July 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Any car section of ACE, Speedex, carrefour, dragon mart or even roadside tire shop sells deflator and gauge. 1 1 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, thank you I did read that post. I should have been clearer. Looking for somewhere I can do a quick in and out for a safety flag and pressure gauge. Dragon Mart is colossal! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
