Yep, my 2007 Vogue SE has been taken along many lanes. That's it in the middle of that muddy hole and again a bit of fording to wash off the mud
Fair play to ya!

I took a mate and my Dad to LR Experience at Eastnor Castle last weekend on an employee self drive offer we had. They loved it.
Both standard cars with sidesteps, except my Dad has RR Sport wheels. Both with road tyres and they never missed a beat. There was even one slope where two Defenders in front (with road tyres) took multiple attempts to climb, both P38A's went up first time.
My mate bent his one sidestep a little, but he did seem to go over everything a little quicker than us lol

I'd love to take my own RR Classic round Eastnor Castle one day, is that possible?

Well they do LR Employee self drive events a couple of times a year. We paid £79 per car and the drive took approx 2 1/2 hours with a coffee/picnic stop halfway.
It would be worth giving them a ring to see what they say about non employee self-drive events. If you are a member of a club, they may put on a club day or something like that or maybe even a LandyZone forum day. They usually have 10 cars on each half day event, escorted by 3 instructor vehicles.
The number for LRE Eastnor is 01531638779

Here you go Mike, just found this and it doesn't say anything about Employees only: LRE - SPECIAL OFFERS

I've been on that very same mud-plug. Spent a good hour there (in my 90, with 3 other 90s and a disco though)
great place!

It's excellent off road. Tyres are Pirelli Scorpion road pattern. I do have a second set of wheels now with General Grabber AT's on. They have a bit more bite on wet grass but beyond that they're not a lot different.

On the second vid I noticed a couple of situations where the front wheels are in the air spinning and the car seems to not be getting any drive - even if this particular p38 doesn't have four wheel TC, surely the "limited slip" centre diff should be transferring power to the rear?
Next outing with the club will be on Salisbury Plains. 1st weekend in December. Sign up here. Always nice to have more people out and about.

Or, if that doesn't give you access, try this like - same event, one of them is acting as go-between.
