Knew someone would say that! Fact is it was well bogged in and simply couldn't cope with the terrain |

Road biased tyres and soft squelchy mud does not give you traction as the tyres fill with mud and become slicks |

Yep pretty much what happened, the tyre were solid mud, all 4 were a day old as well plenty of grooves for that lovely mud to get into.

Don't forget the humble pikey mobile when it's not doing driveways.

Aside from an old 300Tdi Defender I used to own, never had off road tyres and never got stuck and in significant mud too............Mud Terrain in the Disco 3 / RRS / Freeloader 2 and the current Big Daddy has always got me through.
