Cranfield Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Big Bill, sometimes its not what you have, its knowing how to use it. Last Winter on our Syndicate Shoot, I pulled a Shogun ,a Range Rover and a Discovery out of the mud (not at the same time ). My Surf still hasn't let me down.

BIG BILL Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 Cranfeild ! I was a driving instructor for armed forces, served for 15 years plenty of experiance thanks. But don't get me wrong for reliability it has to be Toyota every time I know My wife owns one. Big BIll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white fox Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 I am a big landie fan, But I recon that all 4x4s have the ability to perform in tough conditions, so long as the tyres are suitable and ground clearance is sufficient. It is just a matter of turning all four wheels at the same time for the best traction. Landrover Toyota Nissan Jeep etc... they all work I wouldnt mind a LR101 though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG BILL Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 Who wins 4X4 and off road magazine hard core off roder of the year for as long as I can remember, The defender Why simply the best, I no that the MOD are thinking of changing to Merc G wagon which I have driven and is There on Par and carries more weight 2 tons but we can get the Landie here and cheap. Did you know bit of usless info but 75% of all Landies built are still on the road and no I'm not making that up. Toyotas are good very good and no doubt they suit most people and prob's but u can't beat a landie no mater what and there British.

Don't thank me Bill, I'm sure you enjoyed every minute of it. Re read my post, I was commenting about the ability of 4x4 driving members of my Syndicate. I think White Fox has it quite right. They all do a job and as long as we are happy with what we have, thats fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG BILL Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 Cranfield no probs I didn't mean to brag or nowt just that I agree as long as you enjoy what your doing that's what counts all 4x4's are brill just some better than others but in this Country all will be fine exept Honda crv/hrv/rav4/BMWX5 these are really ****!!!

white fox Posted August 6, 2004 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 all will be fine exept Honda crv/hrv/rav4/BMWX5 these are really ****!!! What was I thinking when I made my post, those vehicles didn't enter my head. Should have put an exclusion on them as Big Bill has done Please excuse me for not thinking about crv/hrv/rav4/.. but it don't come natural ...anyway all fixed now...
