AndrewS organised a recovery rope group buy a few months back, see Topic #7562.
I'm after a couple of recovery ropes myself, so I thought I'd open it up to others to see if we can put in a group order for a bit of a discount. Register interest here, no commitment, I'll get in touch with the suppliers and find out what the prices will be.

Rob ...before I sign up ..are they the snatch type ropes with the hooks attached ??21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
I'd be interested in 2 ropes I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Generous to a fault, they are; tow you out of trouble without going anywhere near your vehicle.
Thinking is - what you're stuck in is usually wider and gooey-er than it seems. Long tow-rope good idea2006 D3 finally swapped for a 2016 D4 Graphite in Graphite grey. No mods

A 4m and a 9m does it for me. Bobby ask Alan what lengths work out the cheapest. It may be that 5m and/or 8m ones work out cheaper. I also have 2m lengths but rarely use them.In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
