Re: G vs Defender..

Definitely some rich Swiss guy using the facilities of this resort in Valencia, Spain:

And he even didn't tell us at the CMGE that he was around!

He proved that he is a plonker driving with those road tyres....

This is part 1:

Very thought provoking. I'm not (as yet) into the whole off-road thing, but it has to be said, what a testament to the G that it could do what it did on thise road tyres, hmm ?

Re: G vs Defender..

Reminds me the times a few years ago when local ehm... better call them voluntary unemployed guys bought their first G500s. They did exactly the same things.

Better hope Harald does not visit GWOA too often.

Only thought provoking in the context of how can beings with the intelligence of pond life actually drive at all :shock:

So I suppose it could be regarded as a testament to the G's abilities but with respect to the road tyres I would expect a Citroen 2CV on road tyres would have coped just as well.

Quite possibly the most inept bit of driving I've ever bothered to watch on utube

Got to have a bit of light relief while having a stupid work day (just figured I'm dealing with the same level of competence here!) that's it I'm off to the pub :D :D

Well just back from the pub and I now retract everything and think they should market that video as a training manual :D :D

Re: G vs Defender..

I wonder how it looks from a "morning after the night before" point of view? :D
