Cheers Hugh.
Are you going on the Killin run this weekend?
Looking very likely, although I am getting some grief from the other half about taking the disco -
she wants me to take the defender as has been fully specked for offroading and whilst i know the GRR are very tame I kinda know where she is coming from.
BUT - thats what it's for -

Last year's event had its moments:

But the D3s did well (esp after I lowered my rear pressures )

I remember hearing about this one - not sure how much of this was down to inexperience
I was on a run with the guys when Sandy decided to stop for lunch at the top f a lovely heather covered BOG - it took a while do get the cars out - Interstingly - Tim was on that drive with his RR sport and had no issues what so ever-
To be honest the sensible thing is to take the defender - I know it's well prepared and kitted out for all conditions and i know how it handles in all conditions - So far not really had the need to take the D3 out of road settings.
Did someone mention SNOW
