(1/3) > >>

Yesterday I was at the NEC caravan, boat and out door show and I was just walking around and suddenly bumped into a sign saying Land Rover towing challenge. Ooh I thought. THe young lady by the door asked if I wanted a go and who was I to say no!!!

I was aloud to go for a 30 min test drive on the roadcoz I had my driving license on me and then when I came back I had a go at their towing challenge which to be honest I could have done better as I took 1 corner not quiet wide enough so had to reverse and correct it but even so the Land Rover chap said I did it in a good time!

I even got a bottle opener that is from a melted down disco 3 alloy wheel from Easnor Castle demonstration car!  :wink:

It was VERY nice to drive but even so I think I may stick to my 300tdi for now.

clips:
did the caravan tow also.
 shame the d3's aren't cheeper, seemed a lovely vechicle to drive.
 Did you also see the rr's and sports acting as courtesy vechicles for those camping?

muddyjames:
The caravan towed very well but that was only at 4-5mph as it was a mega tight course. I didnt see the RR's but i saw some defender counties or what ever the 12 seaters are called.

I towed a broken one to safety on the Edinburgh bypass on Thursday with my trusty 300tdi  :D

LR3?

<shudder>  :roll:

Anyone seen the aftermarket spare wheel carrier? At least it makes it look less like a Transit ;-)

Now when will they get rid of the Ford Fiesta interior .... hmmmm
