Apologies for the non-MGness of this post, but I have to share the pics as I think they're just about the best ever taken of the Defender :D

Great photos, from todays TV news I take it you were going shopping at Tesco.

Had an invite to try out the top of the range Discovery when it first came out.

Transmission had a number of options, road, mud, snow etc. we were let loose at Highcleer Castle, off road, in the woods. Few hills to go up and down, but the instructors had carved out the route, all we got was KEEP IN THE TRAM LINES, KEEP IN THE ----.

Cause all we wanted to do was find our own way down, or up, but they soon stopped you and oicked you out.

:):):):)

Our insrtructor said they go all over the world, he was on the one where they helicopted one in, and the one on top of the mountain.

Price started off OK, but put all the options on it was mega bucks.

Great pics. Nice looking machine. Is it you behind the wheel and is it yours?

Wicked pics man, my mate has similar landie, its a short wheel base with the back cut off, it sounds like a tractor! Lol

I believe he goes to a place called the Woodlands in Kent, held the first Sunday of every month, I should be going along next time he goes, it looks like a load of fun..... :cool2:

Yeah that's me at the helm of the monster. It's currently my daily driver to save putting too many miles on the Impreza.

Hard to think it's 15 years old and only had 70k miles on the clock! It had an easy life until I bought it haha

Nah I'm in the middle of the North Sea at the moment so I'm missing all the fun

In weather like this EVERYONE wishes they had one of these :strongbench:

What Platform are you on? Nice Landy have you ever been to Nortruck up my way? its supposed to be a good testing ground!

[sduk]

superb, i can vouch for this thing being an insane machine! was great fun to be in!

[stamford]

When I was up Sutton Coldfield last weekend during the heavy rain and flooded roads I thought about the ZS in this, would have suffered for sure. The Discovery was excellent, ploughed through everything :D

I'm on the Shell Nelson

Not been far up north, I tend to go south into the borders or to Drumclog :evil:

That's only because it was pitch black and you didn't know where we were! I have to admit when we hit that huuuuuuge puddle I didn't know where I was either :sleep:

That farmer must wonder why his feild is covered in rings every time he forgets to shut the gate... I'm sure it must be aliens :innocent:

Quality pics Ross not sure whether this should be in other car disscussion section though. MODS?
Oh crap i am one and don't know

[Maxxed_Ross]

you're probably right... I totally forgot we had that section lol

Well it is a "Rover"... so the plate on the engine says anyway!

[grimmy]

It's cool Ross was only messing anyway, looks like it was fun day out

[Maxxed_Ross]

it was... I had become a single free man again the day before so I had alot of steam that needed blown off

One guy commented that he had never seen a normal Landrover so far in the air!

Great pictures :)

Defenders have to be one of the best vehicles ever made, wouldnt be that surprised to see a defender pulling a tank out of the mud somewhere ;)

always seems that whatever 4x4 event you go to, there is always a trusty defender to rescue whatever gets caught out.
