    Finally someone give a D3 some curry.

    LOL> Finally someone who wishes to give their D3's a fair flogging.
    They would have to expect heaps of $$$$ to repair their vehicle afterwards.
    Maybe a while before i'd get to that stage & a lot more km's.

    That poor D3 , it would take a whole lot of Dove Cleansing Wipes to tidy her up afterwards!

    Seriously though, I watched that with my heart in my mouth! People really do that to their cars???

    Are D3's supposed to be capable of that kind of off-roading? Serious question.

    I don't think the original video is particularly extreme. The D3 is being driven faster than is necessary, that's about all.

    Hey Gordon,

    Good to see !!! especially Vid 2 in the mud.
    The last time l had mine in really black mud, it took me 2 hrs to get it off the under carrage, but the car was just plain awsome.
    No question, an amazing vehicle !!
    Cheers Dave

    Very true comment, but it always brings a few guys out of the closit, to show what their car can do !!
    Correction, we know what the D3 can do, but to what extent they wish to take it.
