2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

It's really good to see them being used for what they were designed to do, too many folks think that an RRS is only for polishing the living daylights out of. Even had my new babyRR off into the wilds recently - nothing too muddy and no deep water but some pretty deep ruts, deep enough for one of the Freelander1's to get stuck!

Mine is the white car in the centre, it was 2 days old when I did this and it is going off again next weekend - these are Scottish Green lanes - private Waterboard and shooting estate roads. It also has 100% road biased tyres (not even summer M&S rated) and so far nothing I have thrown at it has got it stuck http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y217/joll...ile-29.mp4

Where was this? I took my HST with stormer alloys and Pirelli P Zero tyres to Salisbury plain last weekend and had great fun! No issues with road tyres in the mud and even managed to cover the roof in mud!

Yeah, I just worked out if I use photobucket rather than picasa then they come out bigger! Thumbs Up

I think this maybe the one which ended up on the roof!

I'd be interested in joining up with you if it is a Sunday and I can slip away from SWMBO&CO!

I wouldn't be taking the Sport though, likely to be my Defender instead.
