    Think I'll keep my RRC for playing offroad...

    I find it amusing, even in the D2 when the car proceeds to light it's front brakes on fire and bog itself in sand... Can't imagine what kind of a nightmare D4's and the like are out in the rough stuff.

    Still wouldn't mind a D4 to drag the RRC to where I play

    Don't shortchange the D3, D4 & RRS until you have been out or driven one offroad, it may surprise you!

    yes, only if a front locker is fitted.

    There has been a number of D3s with such faults when driving in a straight line with the steering turned off-centre after one front wheel has been knocked badly out of alignment.

    That's what happens in VERY boggy soft sand without a CDL...

    Oh ok, we've owned them **** loads longer than that, not to mention all the Land Rover dealer training courses dad went to... so not like I don't know my way around them, we have 2 right now.

    And have a D4, but it just hauls the toys... by rough stuff I mean, when you don't have a nanocom, LLAMS, GOE wheels, manual CDL etc, the type of situations that electrickery can't handle... Mind you who would point an 80k motor car at that stuff.

    I've driven them on sand, didn't like how it did it though, the car seemed to want to dig a lot, it was in sand mode and (that 3 letter acronym which escapes me right now) was turned off, I don't like TC in sand at all.

    Junior,

    don't take to much offence from this ...but how about you go get daddy to come and talk to the adults and we will have a grown up discussion with him. ...
    Cheers,

    TerryO,

    What I'm saying old man, is that I've learnt off someone taught by Land Rover, along with my own experience.

    I'm an adult too, so you can shove that up your wrinkly old arse.

    Time to edit my username... It's a bit outdated.

    And Paul, please tell me how I'm wrong, I didn't see you standing there watching.

    smoking the d2 brakes in soft sand would be caused only by overdoing it, back off, let some air out and use the shovel.
    smoking clutch on a d2 would be caused by the sand bowl at stockton.

    Dont know whay d2 you have been driving on sand but it must have been broken....in all the years I have been driving and towing in sand .my d2 has never been other than a tractor. From new mine was sans cdl. With cdl its better in sand but smoking brakes?? Smoking something stronger I think. ..

    Cheers
