Default Bilstain ORV Parc Belgium

Last Sunday we visited the ORV Park in Bilstain Belgium. A bit small but nice steep and rocky terrain.
Here is a small video about our day out.......

Yes, itīs only a small place but you are out in the nature and are allowed to drive there. At least a little bit of freedom and nature in Europe. Not much left here (where you are allowed to go out and be in the nature)
And itīs allways nice to go out and play with friends.

And donīt be jealous on the diesels. It has plenty of power but thats all. Itīs slow, doesnīt sound good, has no better mpg ratio.......

I have heard of the diesels getting in the mid to upper 20's in Australia, I assume its the same diesel. Most people here get the mid teens for average fuel economy.

Average I have 19mpg. could get 21mpg with only highway use and probably 17-18 with only in town use.
And Iīm always driving 65 on the motorway......
I think thatīs normal. Most other Jk drivers here have similar mpgīs .
Peolpe with gasoline engine are talking about 15- 18 mpg.
So no big deal.
But therefore insurance is a bit more expensive on the diesel. car tax per anno is twice or 3 times as high. $650 for the diesel.
The particle filter is a pain in the ass and one of the turbo hoses always dies after 3 years.....
But there we can get Forge hoses for $50 and they last for ever.
