And no, car is not for sale or exchange… 😀

Dear all,
I am new to the group and off-roading in general. Hoping to make my first drive this Friday.I’ll get the radio and flag, as advised. I was hoping to defer the decision to buy a compressor after this drive. Will that be okay? Many thanks.

Radio and flag is enough for this drive, you can inflate at Badayer tyre shops after the drive :ymhug:
Great, thanks! Looking forward to it.
Adil.rajguru- i have a spare air compressor that i can give to you. Will meet you on friday and give it to you if you like.
That’d be awesome, thanks

HELP!
I have managed to get the Radio, but I am struggling to find a place to get a flag and more importantly fix it. I don’t have a roof rail so I believe a bracket will need to be fabricated. Ramy 4×4 are too busy to do it by tomorrow (Ramadan timings are another constraint). Can anybody please suggest where I can get this done by tomorrow? Thank you all in advance.

AdiMy first 20 drives or so I had a fishing rod used as a flag pole. You can get it at Carrefour or Lulu for like 30 dirhams.
Dragon Mart has flags with suction cups also.
OK thanks, I’ll try and get a fishing rod, or will try DM.
In case of the fishing rod: how do you attach it to the car, however?
