Defender did have center diff on lock, but it didn't have traction control. Front left spinning and back right - cross axel! Pre traction control defenders without f/r diff locks will not proceed in these situations.

They do, and it did. In some situations though, compared with a Terrain Response vehicle, it doesn't react fast enough or hard enough, as it has to be a compromise between on-road driveability and off-road traction.Quote:

True, does look like a puma... front wheel appears to be stuttering so yeah looks like even TC could'nt help it... odd, maybe rear diff bottomed out?Quote:

Hi All, some of you might have noticed that my '07 Puma is up for sale in the appropriate section. Reason being I'm looking at a D3.
Living and working in Broken Hill with it's sheite roads make the Deefer an average daily driver. And the A/C or windows down are pretty average in the 40+ even 45+ heat we've had this year.
The Deefer hasn't done much offroad stuff so I think the D3 will suit my lifestyle, road trips and general touring, fair amount of gear - once barrier installed.
TheOp - what colour is your D3?

It's silver....
I have decided to keep the car after reading this debate (loosely used term)
I just spent quite Abit of money on it.
Waiting for the new defender.....
