Hallow hallow

Picked this up at the beginning of the week after much searching!

Hopefully to be used properly very soon, has had some mods by a previous owner so we'll see how it goes, been out in the snow today :lol: parts buying has started! :lol:

Great motor :D

We've had Landys for years and here's our latest addition - a sod to keep clean, but they're allowed to be dirty aren't they :lol:

We ended up dragging a stranded pajero through this... was just over sill deep in most places...

Havn't got any photos but we managed to nearly drown it in a hole full of muddy silt... was so close to going in the airway, the the end we had force it out backwards as we'd managed to push a massive wall of sludge infront of us... bad plan... :cry:

This was the inside after one wash... reversing made all the muck and sludge come up through the gearleaver covers...

I love Defenders, there's something so timeless about them.

How did it cope at the pay and play?

There's one up near me, I'm a bit dubious of taking the Range Rover up because I know it'll get trashed :thumbsup:

Nahhh, the only bad thing was we got stuck in a silt bog, one guy rolled his but if you practice, it's fun :thumbsup:

I was pretty nervous at some points :withstupid:

Cool, I found a place quite local to me, most of it is really steep deep ruts and even with the suspension raised up to it's highest position, I doubt I'd get through in mine, well, It would probably do it, but I was a bit apprehensive. Went up there last week with my mate, got a very quick video, it doesn't show how steep the place was.

Looks kind of weak to be honest :thumbsup:
