    Driving Lesson

    I mentioned in the Intoductions section that I'm new to all this and I am wondering if anyone knows of / or is able to provide me with lessons in the basics of off road driving to prevent any kind of mishaps and muppetry displayed in that YouTube video etc. Of course I am wiling to pay with cash/beer/whatever

    I'm in Sydney area and I pick up my very own Discovery on Wednesday so getting out and about to places nearby isn't so much of an issue any more.

    Sam, as you are in Sydney, I'd really recommend joining either the LROC http://www.lroc.com.au/ or RRC http://www.rangeroverclubnsw.asn.au/index.htm

    Membership includes free 4WD training.

    Well worth it.

    personally i wouldn't recomend the lroc we paid to renew our membership fee in oct of last year and they have still to this day not recognised our renewal after numerous emails to the secutary (even sent them one from my email incase ians wasn't etting through) and even approached some one at the club on a club night and asked and they said they were getting it sorted...........

    personally i'm disgusted with the level of service, and i dont care what any one says i dont care if they are volenteers, if you volenteer to do a job full fill that job and do it properly, they seemed quick enough to take the money we have proof that we paid throught paypal..

    but will not reply to emails to rectify this problem..NOT IMPRESSED AT ALL

    Sam,
    I wish more first time 4WD owners would take your approach. I've seen way to many people buy their 1st 4WD and not have a clue how to use it.

    Good luck and have fun.
