Hey dude, Welcome along to the wonderful world of ORE.
I would suggest joining a club as you get access into some cool spots that you wouldnt otherwise get the chance too.
I would suggest looking around for a club that suits your needs.
I can recommend the Norwest OHV Club (but I am slightly biased
)
There is also the Shore Four Wheelers or Auckland 4wd Club.
Cheers
Caleb

Welcome to the Jeep world and ORE.
Come along to the club meeting and see how that interests you. I would recommend Auckland 4wd Club, but I am slightly biased......

Hey thanks for the welcome

Might even start a project post as two jeeps later i have one shiney one done up and sold, then making my one out a third wrecked one. Met some nice jeep guys alone the way so now hooked on jeeps and my garage looks like a jeep wreckers has moved in......according to the wife!

Re: North shore cherokee newbie wants to tag along
don't talk to my wife about jeeps, she'd sell you mine if I slept for too long, I gotta take it everywhere I go.
good luck with builds , jeep wreckers , cool man

Re: North shore cherokee newbie wants to tag along
Thankfully my wife drives a Jeep too. I don't get any push back from her. We are a Jeep family.

Re: North shore cherokee newbie wants to tag along
Just a quick question.
Is this 55 dollars per car or per person in the car?
And also would i have a good time there in a completly standard 4x4 with your average at tyres?
I was thinking of going when i finally get my 4x4 before and after i did mods to see the difference. But if its pointless going completely bog standard ill obviously have to wait.

Its per car.....
The tracks are graded and set for std vehicles. There are by passes around and tricky bits and you can always make your own...Its mostly sand based so you can get away with road tyres but in the clay parts muddies are the go....

Not a problem, glad the family enjoyed it, now to convince the missus on the tyres and winch
