I like this a lot . Not quite a Bollinger but I'll have the plaid upgrade please.
(Funny how people with no off road experience react when 'greenlaning' )

I actually quite like it. The 84 approaches scale is staggering, and I like the straight panel, utilitarian look. Like that air suspension is available, but I think the range is probs fine for somewhere like Scotland but about 1/3 of what it should be for Australia. But then again, you can fit a shirt load of solar panels in the cargo area [emoji2369]

Love to see how that would try and pass pedestrian impact testing here.
I don’t mind it at all. [emoji106]

The regen braking comment was interesting. I use the brake 90% less in my EV than my Disco due to the regenerative braking.
Had not thought of that in a 4wd sense before watching this.

The regen off road is an absolute game changer.
i fitted a potentiometer on my Landy to adjust the regen level to control descent speed, No need to touch brake whatsoever even on the very steepest descent , can then press accelerator to hurry the decent a little then on a long slope can readjust to maintain a nice decent speed. Whilst at the same time charging battery.
Here is a little demo video I did a few years ago , You can see I'm not on the brakes as the rear wheel starts going backwards when it loses traction.

I like it, reminds me of the RRC at the front and a Defender at the back.
