    That is ridiculious. I would be one of the most inexperienced off roaders on AULRO even I would do better than that. As said above the driver does not do the car justice.

    [quote=P38ace;523314]If they were, wheel travel is supposed to keep the wheels on the ground. I don't think LR will be using clip this for publicity purposes.

    They might use this one tho ...... comparing it to a Nissan Pootrol

    Well, I think it's impossible to make an accurate judgement based on a grainy video. It's two dimensional rather than three, thus making it very difficult to accurately assess the actual ground.

    Furthermore, any comments as to driver experience are complete conjecture. Maybe the driver is experienced, maybe not. Again, it's impossible to make the call.

    You have other factors to consider: Who took the video, who published it, why, background, etc.

    I hardly think a youtube video is going to be a significant selling point in a motor vehicle.

    Anyone who makes any real judgemnet based on this or any such recording probably will never drive such a car off road anyway!

    I bet Landrover will be hoping you right on that one Jamo.

    I dont think its that bad, the wheel travel in the rear isnt to bad for a standard vehicle, and the number one rule of cross axle stuff is to use momentum the driver didnt in this case.

    Anyway, maybe he spilt his coffee? Or he might have been eating an inferior standard meat pie at the time and therefore wasn't concentrating on driving.
