    A statutory number is not feasible for the question, a range would have been better (IMHO). I would fall into the 6-12 times a year category depending on circumstances, i.e. maybe six time one year and 12 the next or something in between. I have considered the poll and cannot participate in its current structure.

    Mine goes off (made) roads fairly often but as far as engaging low range, well that varies ... depends where I go I find that the gearing in them is such that you don't need low range as often as you might in another type of 4wd

    Mines only registered in winter and really only used shooting fishing firewood cutting so every time I drive it it goes off road pretty much

    I've asked the Poll Question here as I feel the Defenders are a more unit specific type form of transport (not a Soccer Mums Car).
    This Poll of corse is aimed at the Pleasure 4WDer & not the Commercially used ones or Bitumen Holiday Travellers.
    I'm sure we have more than 51 Defender Drivers out there. How often do you go 4WDing?

    Due to certain circumstances I haven't been off road since end of Jan but heading out with two other members on 16th of this month. Before that it was every weekend full off road and mostly low range. From this point on it will be every fortnight.

    Everyday last year on our drive to Australia! But now I just use it to commute I find your gravel and dirt roads here don't need low or CDL so imagine you have to go WAY out to drive something requiring low range.

    Back home in the UK I would have said once a month but here I am not so sure

    I suspect that in the restricted sense you are using for 4WDing, most never or rarely do. Strictly speaking, I don't own a Defender - I own a 110, made several years before the Defender name was invented, anyway!

    A bit restrictive in the categories I think. I use mine for various , working on the property, hauling a trailer of stuff, long distance runs when I need to carry more than will fit in the Disco, etc. But most 4wd would be what you call commercial, eg business work on property. Ask how many cruisers in mining employ use 4 low and see, not many!
    But I use mine in 4 low maybe 4-5 times a week.
    Cheers Scott
