Good suggestion mudrat but the defenders out the question as i have a number of offspring to house in the vehicle, 7 seats is pretty much a must !!
Also quite like my shoulders & not a fan of beating them off the inside of a defender lol
They also seem more pricey than discos, and im on quite a tight budget !
They are extremely good off road tho done salisbury plain in a 56 plate defender.
The second time we went we were up to the bonnet in water along with a RRC v8 ! funnily enough the defender went in to limp mode after the second drowning yet the old rangie v8 did us proud and as much as it didnt like it ( coughed, spluttered & stalled ) when under water. it even started whilst underwater ! admitedly we had to wait for all 8 cylinders to start firing but every time it pulled us out of the flood. unbelievable !! ended up towing the defender back with it !
So thats the reason im fond of the v8,s but seriously guys after your advice its a derv for me !!
Carry lots of WD40 and when it get wet spray all plug wires ,coils with it. The stuff really works well
