With all 3 vehicle parked, yes, it is Parkamoor, the Disco was taken somewhere during the day playing.
You can get through Parkamoor with side steps on, but it is very tight
No damage up or down, knocked tow ball a couple of times on way down, but nothing too hard or damaging. Just take your time and pick your lines. Traction control is very, very impressive, both up and down.
The black 90 was on road tyres and had traction control, limited suspension travel due to anti roll bars, and when he started to struggle he just gave it a bootfull and let the computer work it out. The other 90 was a standard TD5. Without traction control he arguable had to drive the hardest. Disco 3 just crawled up nice and steady without any fuss or any lairyness.
On a side note, my Disco had been dropping when parked for any period of time, because I believe the valve blocks were leaking (internally) Since having this day out playing the suspension has been spot on everyday. I guess making them work cleans them out. So now I have an excuse to go off road more often, I'm fixing the suspension RRS HSE 2012 Stage 1 remap, timed heater General Grabbers

Been there, done that..
Good lane and it's staggering how the D3 walks up the trail.
Very effortless, I did use my mate as a spotter as damaging it wasn't an option so I played it safe.
