I'm a big LR fan, but wouldn't have believed in a million years that a stock RR with 20" and street tires would have been able to climb that. Moreover, videos never show the real steepness and difficulty of the track. Good job for the driver and the people who guided him. And the car, of course!.

I had a bog standard discovery2 td5. Had some engine trouble the day I got it. After weeks of misdiagnosis I got it sorted but hated the car due to all the issues. Took it to an off road pay and play to try and destroy it so I could justify another car. I couldn't get it stuck, climbed everything I pointed it at and kept up with some modified ones. End of the day I was so impressed I stuck all terrains on it and kept it for 15years. Broke my heart when the chassis gave out.

Ended up putting 18" wheels and bfg at kos on my lr3. Even then, dont air down through mud and rock as greater risk of getting crap between bead and a flat tire.

The thing most 4WDrivers don't know about the Range Rover L322 is the suspension's ability to emulate a beam axle by using the air suspension's 'cross flow' feature in low range. This coupled with each axle's ability to drop way below the centre-line (almost 300mm on the rear) so when coupled with competent driving, makes for impressive capability. Back in 2002, we operated Australia's first commercially operated Range Rover L322 TD6. Hundreds of Brits and US travellers came with us to enjoy the Blue Mountains & Hunter Valley from the perspective of exciting, safe, luxury 4WD touring.

The Land Rover terrain response system never quite gives up does it? It may take a few seconds to work it out, but it gives the vehicle traction in the end even if its just to one wheel. That is quite an achievement on street tyres, but then again you guys really know what you are doing. Not sure I could do the same without fitting A/T tyres.
@lror2 жыл бұрын
