You have 3 kinds of modified JL's: 1. The ones that have been heavily abused in the desert.. RUN AWAY FROM THOSE AS THEY WILL DRAIN YOUR WALLET 2. The ones that have been driven on beginner level drives only because the owner likes to take it easy. 3. The ones that have been taken the malls only and hardly been offroad at all. A deep inspection (take a good mechanic with you) should reveal in which category the car belongs, but indeed like @Mark Bmentions in many cases they remove parts and put the car back to stock to sell it, so it's indeed challenging. There is a large number of Jeep owners that have deep pockets and go for a fully equipped modified to the brim Jeep Wrangler, but due to work or travel hardly take it to the desert. Buying one like that could turn out to be a good deal IF the mods were done properly and with RTA approvals where needed (important one).

Well done @Dev_

Drive Report Convoy 1 @Jona@FERNANDO SYRIO@Mohit Gurnani@Ahmad Nerat@Jaro Tuzinsky@Beide Worku@Salim Akhtar@Mus_hus78@Zed I think we had a good run this morning ! A nice mixed convoy with members who were eager to explore the nice rolling and long range dunes of Nahel. With only minor refusals/stucks, and a quick pop-out fix by Ahmad, and with help of @DP1011his nice breakfast, we were quickly back in the sand and continued our journey with the plan to go and say hello to our Old Lady Dune. We reached there around 10AM and did a quick run up and descent, and i decided not to keep pushing it but to make our way to the exit as the temperatures were on the rise. Fantastic second lead duties by @Jona, great shoveling work by all of you to get me out of that deep sand and with @Zedin the back we know we will be looked after ! https://www.relive.cc/view/vevYQn99Ayv @Bjoern@Cristian@Andrei S@Naveen Raj@Ignacio Quindós@Gary F@DP1011 @Looper I hope you boys had a good run as well. I am planning to revisit this area in a couple of weeks and hope we can drive together to continue our exploration of this wonderful terrain. Have a good remainder of the weekend ! Thanks @Looperfor taking on a second convoy and giving everyone a chance to enjoy this area.
