What did you do with your Range Rover today

I learnt that road tyres are rubbish on gravel. Took my RR to the ranges a couple of days ago and was being lead out by a mil landy, reached a sweeping bend the landy flew round at about 60. I hit the same bend and just understeered wide. Was scary business. Drifting a RR full of squaddies was an interesting experience.
 
My efforts today: put her on the ramp and greased all the UJ's and sliders, checked the trans box level was and was ok. Needed a beer after that - went on the bus![/quote]


Lucky sod, a bus :D

Useless on icy corners too, the benefits of all wheel drive:rolleyes:

Oh yeah, all of that extra weight is totally worth it. I am sure my old van could've took the bend at sixty without drama. But then who puts road tyres on a big heavy vehicle and expects it to corner? :p

My Pajero in 2WD was better on icy corners, I could hang the tail out on the throttle, can't do that with full time 4WD:p

I got the tail to hang out on a junction, but it felt as though I was tearing off the bead. Shoulda got 18s, less side wall, more fun... and punctures. :D
