RX4 off road??

<< < (3/3)

carbore:
Thing about "4x4" is that for some reason as soon as anyone sticks a 4x4 badge on a car that looks a bit "tough" people think they can drive them through quarries or rutted tracks. Now they are not really designed for that, but thats not really a problem.

I regularly (infact daily) drive "off road" but nothing serious just car parks at car boot, agricultural shows, farm sales, byways leading to cliff top car parks and even my drive. All of these are just about passable with a normal car, however our Golf lost its undertray on my drive and I have see people trying to bounce cars out of the mud in a car park I was driving out of with ease. Modern cars are lower than they used to be and have all sorts of spoilers/splitters and such (even basic spec ones).

So what im trying to say is there is nothing wrong with a car thats "a little bit off road", just dont follow your mate in a Disco.

Range Rover Blues:
There was a time when the average family car was damn good off-road, like here.  There's off-road and off-road, though most of us go greenlaning and that isn't strictly off-road it is what the yanks call "off-highway"
