As far as a touring rig, something like the 6wd Disco (paintshop mockup)that I posted in another thread but for sheer off road, a Cuthbertson track system on a defender 130 duel cab but with a chev diesel v8 under the bonnet.

I recon it would be able to manage a few ruts and stuff, side slopes may be interesting though.

Here's some pics of what I mean for those who dont know.

Question: If you have 3x29" wheels on each axel, with tracks would it still be road legal ........?

Well that's easy.

One that breaks down less often than the current one does.

Any 110/County/Defender diesel.
