Last week we visited the Land Rover experience centre at Dunkeld, we took the option to upgrade a half day off roading to a full day, having been to the North Yorks venue last year i couldn't wait for the day to arrive
This morning stint was made more fun by sheet ice and deep snow which made things a little unpredicatable, the side slope was very hairy to say the least 
All i wanted to hear on the radio was the green light to head up to the hills after lunch After what seemed like an eternity whe were given the green light 
We finished the morning and headed off for a spot of lunch As i mentioned at the start Dunkeld had seen heavy snow fall and nobody had been up to the Estate fo a while What followed was a fantastic full afternoon driving round virgin tracks in deep snow, the RRS never mised a beat we only had to stop to radio back to base at the varoius check points
Even at full height the number plate was acting as a snowplough
The sharp eyed of you may notice something odd about our car for the day! A huge thanks to the guys and girls at LRE Dunkeld for making our day so enjoyable This is a venue and a day out i can thoughly recommend  MY10 3.0 TDV6 HSE, Zermatt Silver, 20" Diamond Turned Alloys, Factory Privacy Glass, Premium Leather, Contrast Stiching, Side Steps, Etc

That's what I was thinking, surround cameras? I would also be interested to know what tyres they are. I recently did the full day at the South East centre and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was also covered in snow so we were restricted in what we could do but overall it added to the fun.

Ok the tyres are MTR's although not a snow/ice tyre they performed very well, apart from a little noise on the road sections

It appears that you had a wheel change at some time or different wheels on each side of the car - some pics show D3 HSE wheels and the last one shows D4 splitspoke wheels.......................

I have just booked a half day at the Land Rover Experience at Dunkeld. I got an invite by visiting the LR stand at the Royal Highland Show. I have decided to go with the Discovery 4 rather than the RRS as a comparison - I am planning a new motor in 2011 so want to compare the Disco to the RRS. I am doing it on Thursday afternoon! looking forward to it too.. If you see a bandwagon - it's too late.....
