I don’t think his target audience would really care.

He is a YouTuber and always looking for content...good bad or otherwise he’ll have another vid up next week that will be more in line with his channel.

I’d say it was a spare of the moment opportunity......

Him knowing the vehicle better would not change anything. The electronics can only do so much with low profile tyres and no suspension travel.

He just needed to turn DSC off , though LR should have made this happen automatically when selecting sand, mud rocks setting when in low range etc by now, though agree 20 inch tyres as useful as tits on a bull

Pretty sure he mentioned turning DCS off a couple of times.

I’m sorry, but that was crap. Didn’t know how to use TR? Literally one of the best parts of any Land Rover since 2005. All that nonsense around wheels spinning at the start - means he was doing it with all special functions off. No wonder it spun.

Speed of HDC - again, simple with 20 seconds of instruction or googling.

Barbagello, assuming they did actually just hand him the keys without a word of help, should be ashamed. Ronny more so though, if he is presenting himself as an expert.

Stick to the Japanese tractors.

While a new Defender is way off Ronny's regular viewer demographic, for LR it's surely a huge win!

It didn't break down, throw any codes, cameras stop working etc, etc. .. assuming he got it back to the dealer without issue, of course.
