I thought so. No helpful input just opinions and question what you have done!
A well set up land rover should have on problems taking avasive action he need be even at speed
Don't worry about it - Sean just likes to start an argument
Actually I believe an 88 landy truck cab well serviced could well outperform a 110 fitted with a roof rack in an avoidance scenario. Add to that equation the numpty driving who fits a spare wheel and extra jerry cans on the roof rack of the 110 and there would be no contest.
I would suggest that many of the preconsieved ideas about older landys come from driving complete old nails that passed an MOT only because the MOT tester either didnt know what he was looking at or didnt want to know.
As for your implications regarding emergency avoidance techniques then I might just add that during my time as a driver for the International Police Program in Afghanistan I did on occasion practice this and also carried out such actions during routine daily work. And for the record almost allways at speeds exceeding the UK legal speed limits.
Would you like some lessons?
