There's a place in Clare. I can't remember off the top of my head but I'll check up my Land Rover books to get the address and contact details. I hope they are still on the go.

Have you a 4x4 of your own or just going to hire one out?

don't have one, would need to hire one. Thanks for your help

 

Now Trevor, I had a look through the recent issues of "Land Rover Owner" I have here but I could not get any listings. However, I looked up the magazine "Off Road & 4 Wheel Drive" that's here for years, in fact I'm ashamed to say it's the May 1996 issue

so I don't know if the places listed are still up and running.

Anyway, two places listed that are closest to you are:

Dromoland Off Road Driving Experience
Dromoland Castle, Newmarket-on-Fergus, Co. Clare - (061) 368809. Opened in 1995. Land Rovers for hire aswell.

Rockgrove Off-Road Centre
Coachford, Co. Cork - (021) 334000. Opened in 1994.

Try these out (hope the numbers are still the same) and see how you get on. The one in Cork might not be for Land Rovers though as they mention quads and off-road karts but have a try anyway.

There's more places listed, one in Monaghan and the rest up North, so if you want their details let me know, I have them here.

Off-Roading would be some craic. I'm hoping to get a Defender myself during the summer, have plenty of work lined out for it

 

There's another place in North Cork somewhere I think. Buttervent or Charleville I think.

No idea of the names etc

 

They are good craic I'd say, well judging by what I see in the magazines anyway.

 

thanks guys, I'll look 'em up.

Any of our South East brethren heard of anything in Waterford? It may have been a dream

I think it must have been a dream mate, nothing around here that i know of.

 

Hey if you were doing it with a group try www.irelandxtreme.ie and they supply everything

 

Bollocks just had a look at some of the terms and saw in the 4x4 treasure hunt " Must have a full CLEAN driving license and be 30 or over" That puts me way out of it

 

That's unusual isn't it? Would put me out aswell, have another 8 years to wait

 

See if this is what you are looking for!

Munster 4x4

 

makes good reading but I'm after somewhere that will let me drive their 4x4 for the day, like those rally schools where you get instruction for a few laps and then get a few laps on your own.
