    A play with a RR Sport

    In the bush, he's in the process of getting 17" rims and STTs for more fun offroad.



    I tried to go slow, but i had to, well get the lead out.

    The fella standing by the side of the track seemed to think that the Sport was going to fall over! It is a good example of how good the traction control system is, having a front wheel so clearly off the ground, but still going forwards. It didn't look to be the most stable vehicle in that situation.

    BigJon thats why for my money I'll never buy an off road vehicle with independant suspension. The more articulation the better. I agree that the new rovers are very good off road however having more wheels on ground are the key no matter what lockers TC you have.

    Charlie - No arguement from me. That is why I have a live axled Range Rover. Oh, that and the cash issue...

    well it's all about having fun really not cash, Ben is just an average guy that had the chance to buy a great car so he did, he acually wanted a D3 but got talked into LEASING the RR Sport.

    Nothing to do with money

    And as for the live axle V IFS or indapendant arguement, what a load of rubbish

    Well you can make an IFS vehicle these days as capable, just depends on how much money you throw at it, live axle has it's advantages and independent has it's advantages.

    Even some of the super modified rock crawers are now going independent for more clearence as the diff doesn't protrude as low.
    Cheers Baz.
