The Suzuki Jimny 2019 - a little smaller and cheaper than the Sport but Top Gear seem to like it and it beats the FFRR off road too

I'm not sure the chap in the RR is the best driver. There will be places where the tables would be turned..

At least the RR didn't have to suffer the ignominy of being towed out by the Jimny.

I don't think the Jimny would have enough power to pull the RR

Although, see my sig...

...and if driving ruts made by Land Rovers, its little wheels won't reach the ground.

I used to have a SJ413 Samurai and it was awesome. It would pull most things out of the mud including Land Rovers. In my cars case, it was the Tyres that made light work of it not the car. It was good for what it was but with Road Tyres it was just another car stuck in the mud. Big paddles made the difference but then it was crap on the road. In my limited experience, the Defender and disco make the best of both worlds. 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)

Daihatsu Fourtrac is also much under rated and equally sniggered at by those who don’t see them doing what they were designed to do - bit like RRS’s really, way more capable than 95% of owners will ever find out. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

My mates a Farmer down in Devon and he has a Daihatsu Fourtrac and rates it very highly, although don't mention the C word (corrosion).

Or onroad behaviour! But then a Defender isn’t that great on tar either.... 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
