can we guess that WP 1 is AWOL or the goat trail is pretty tight and technical...?

that would be very technical at 40km/h... maybe a little from column A, a little from column B

I thought all support vehicles needed to be caged? Is that not a cut section of cage peeled back infront of the guy in red with reflective bands? (Fireman?) Where they've had to cut cage and doors to access the casualty?

no, only the cab of the 110... I assume that if it were caged it would be fitted with the OEM external cage like my 90 has...

I once reversed a Landie into a small van at work (van parked behind me while I wasn't looking, couldn't see it in the mirrors or out the rear window due to the spare on the back door), it completely totalled the front of the van but it just scratched the paint on the tow bar on the Landie!
