I have been lurking for a long time and thought i had better introduce myself, I am located in Australia and my RRSport Spends 25% of its time off the road...



I have recenlty Added the 17" Wheels and 10 Ply cooper STT off road tyres, shortly will have Storage Drawers added as well. Ben

Wow. Looks a bit more 'Hardcore' than mine

How do you find it off road and where do you take it? Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award

Really impressive Rangie. The guy on foot looks as if he panicked a bit.

The link doesn't work by the way, I had to copy and paste. Try this one.

Nice Rangie... do you change your bling wheels for the stock items when you go on the sand or is it simply that you didn't own the other wheels when you took the sand shot?

Hey, some'ats pinched my Sport and taken out to the sunshine................. and I've been driving it all weekend too

How do you find the Cooper SST's Rangie? I was offered them here at considerably less than the Goodyears, but have gone for the Goodyears and 1 month after ordering I am still waiting for them - the tyre dealer says Goodyear has recalled all the G4 MTRs in the UK as they are releasing another version with an uprated speed rating for RR's and Sports. I steered away from the Coopers as many of my Defender owning friends had found them not so good offroad, especially in the muddy conditions we have here. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW
