Being in the Pub the night before, overheard the mate of this driver, going on about all the gimmicks on the RRS, like the turning lamps and didn;t like all that.

All I can say is sometimes more is more, it ain't what you got its how you drive it

Then pulled them out


Got the Missus to take some more piccies

Ummmmmmmmmmm, just goes to show how useless the standard General Grabbers are that the factory fits to Defenders these days. I run my 1996 90 Tdi300 on BFG MTRs which run quieter on road than their AT's and I haven't noticed any fuel consumprion increase either, but I sure don't get stuck as often as I use too either!
I know several folks with TD5 Defenders like that one who say the biggest cause of getting stuck is the Traction Control which confuses the ECU/anti stall and then cuts all power when you most want it! A 90 should never have got stuck in that little hole A Carbon Footprint is the mark a lump of coal makes when it's dropped on the ground.

Tata TDv8 HSE - Stornoway/ebony and straight grain walnut with towpack, Tasmods and an HST grille. Coming soon LEDs in the headlights
Staying - Epsom Green Defender 90 for playing off road

The guy with the shovel was the one who didn't know when to stop digging

He had a go at digging it out, whilst i reversed back up to them, he was so desperate not to be rescued by a car driven by electric gizzmos rather than a driver.

i'm not had much experience in offroading, but

Wouldn't have been better to avoid the big hole and maybe drive were the bloke with the shovel is stood

This guy was shod with procomp all terrains, he didn't stall he spun out.

I am running General Grabbers on mine.

I put that down to driver error, what a total numpty Speed Limits! not where I live!
