Keep meaning to watch this but the commentary wears thin after a bit
Must confess a lot of the times I’ll just FF it , but indeed some videos are ruined by constant commentary
Really like some of the off roading from Australia , blimey they know how to test there vehicles, trailers and all

And the douches that run the channel wanting to get all views and big up the places they go (even when the lanes don’t look to be in a state to drive) and then wanting to keep locations all secret secret. It’s no wonder 4x4’s and off roaders get a bad rep in the U.K.

I haven't watched the video yet but I was impressed with the std D3/4s I saw going through the 'mud run' at Billing the other weekend, did anyone else see the Ineos get stuck ?
Talking of the billing show found this , hopefully they’ve included the D3/4 on the mud runs

Traction control is a game changer. Keeping all 4 wheels rotating makes a huge difference. The D3/4 and newer models do this so well with so little wheel slip or spin required. The D2, Freelander 1 and Td5 onwards Defenders all very capable in this regard. Just a bit more wheel spin and engine revs required.
I wasn’t at Billing. But watched a different vid. Looked like the mud run had a nice solid base. So unless you were unlucky and picked a particularly deep bit, pretty much any 4wd should have been able to drive through with few dramas.
