G, Prado and Disco III
Went for a bit of a play with some friends yesterday. The Disco III has all the extra's, snorkel, bull bar, winch, snow deflectors, big MT tyros,etc, etc,etc.
I've seen Disco's in action before, bit never in the mud, and always thought they were quite good off road, well yesterday proved me wrong, this thing was useless!! The Prado is brand new, and the driver has no experience, and was on road tyros, and he never got stuck. The Disco driver has lots of experience, right wheels etc, and got stuck all the time and had to be winched, pulled and pushed a lot.
I think I'll stick to driving G's for a while.
Hi Leeu.

Very well, still pushing the limits and converting LR drivers.

The Disco gets changed for one of the discounted G's tomorrow. I'm a bit nervous now, what if the guy just can't drive?
