The old Land Rover really gets a bashing on UA-cam unfortunately but it’s proved itself over the years in many conflicts and I’m sure I read that over a hundred armies have used them at some point! Even the US army rangers have had them and obviously the famous SAS! We use a 1999 td5 which is a ex para truck, the paper work shows it was sent to the Middle East and then on to the falklands before coming back to the UK where we took it on to pull ships ropes on a scrap berth! So it’s had over 20 years in the heat and sand, then cold and a marine environment where it’s been abused and it really has performed brilliantly! It must pull well beyond Land Rovers recommend weight with the ropes we pull but it just gets on with it.
I am riding a Nissan Patrol and a Landrover Freelander. This video is really useful. Solid explain and very easy to understand.. Thank you very much sir.
Land Rovers are the best vehicles ever made by far they are just brilliant Range Rover is luxury disco and Defender off-roading Freelanders ok as well nothing can top Land Rover they go on and on and never die it's hard to get them stuck last forever people just don't treat them well which is fine if it's just your rough off-roader
@Rifles, rigs and radio’s Really? Why do you believe that the plural of radio requires an apostrophe, but Rifles and rigs do not? The level of illiteracy in this country is an embarrassment.
unfortunately the level of illiteracy nearly equals the level of pernickety. Fortunately, the double checking of written text can resolve this. I fear that trying to deal with pedantic tendancies, somewhat harder. but thanks for your comment.
@@riflesrigsandradios4636 Yeah well after owning 3 of them, i learned my lesson, to me they are peaces of junk, they would be awesome, if LR put reliable engines and transmissions in them.
only issue I ever had with them in 9 years service including tours in the gulf, Yugoslavia in winter that wouldn't be due normal wear and tear or driving like a nob was when a gearstick broke off in my hand.
I want to get anywhere Land Cruiser can't take a Land Rover they are the best vehicles ever made I do agree that large cruises on reliable and are still nice but I would take a Land Rover any day
Absolutely solid advice. Useful for any off road work. Not just for Land Rover drivers.

Land Rovers are like marmite: you either love them or you hate them.
@@kingarthur5110 you aren’t wrong!
Unusual it would make the return trip from BFFI, it costs more than they're worth unless they're brand new or a specialist vehicle
I'm so using this to teach my friend to play Snowrunner.

I love 90's and i miss it
Great video. Love that model Land Rover & with the canvas roof, what a good cruiser it would be.
Lots of useful information and the driving tips are life saving as well .. great video.
Solid info, thanks!
I’m off out in my 1988 ex RAF 110 for a bit of a practice.
I have downloaded the video now. Good for my knowledge. I will share it with friends. Thanks
Yes! Watched this when I was at DST Leconfield.
Same here mate!
@@billyvinilly8104 Yes Brother!!!
I remember these Land Rover wolfs in 1997. They were pretty quick.
I now live in Australia, it’s Toyota Landcruisers all day I’m afraid.
Thanks.

idk why im watching this but this is solid advice
Now shoot the same with Clarkson behind the wheel, spinning the wheels, shouting POWEEEEEER
And to keep wheels turning and boots marching, a stuck Land Rover really does slow you and your whole company down even to a stop ✋🏻
Center diff lock aka regular 4wd setting
When in doubt...drive it like ya stole it!
yessir

Austin Champ, but around 3x the cost.
Prior planning and preparation prevents pi£& poor performance.

@@riflesrigsandradios4636 Yet one of us is right, and the other is making excuses… 👀🧐😎😜
Peace
@@riflesrigsandradios4636In fairness, bloody autotype is responsible for a lot of my rant texts' inappropriate apostrophes.
Want to get into the bush take a land rover want to get out of the bush take a Land Cruiser.
It's a popular opinion. But it's amazing how many years service they have provided the British armed services. They are a bit of a national hero here.
