hiya everyone!
just so ya know i dont own a landrover :( bad times! but i have driven (well tried!) to drive one and have been from the east coast of england to the north of wales (very slowly!!!!) as a passenger and did not complain once, does this earn me some merit? lol
I do love em tho especially the older ones u know the big retro ones! well what is there to tell bout me? im 21, im studdying at college to be a joiner/ carpenter and i love it! :D
I have a major phobia of off roading, due to a really bad experiance! but really want to overcome this!:o so lets chat!!!!!

Hello and welcome.

Where abouts in the world are you. If you are not too far im sure you could come out laning with us some time. We have just done a forum meet in Derbyshire.

that wud be cool, im lincolnshire!
just so you know i am terrified, so may actually be fairly hysterical! unless i was driving lol!
i hate that it scares me so much, but ive got an ex to blame for that thinking that he could go up a verticle embankment in a Su$*&i J*&P and nearly tip me outa the window and squish me wiv the sodding thing.
Ive got a friend who has a landy, we went to wales in it found ourself down a single track wiv a car cumin the other way so he just drove up the bank and was very shocked when i nearly cried! ha ha! So knowing all that r u sure lol! ;)

Start with some gentrle green laning. My misses wasn't comfortable the first few times we went out but now trusts my judgment completely and typically if your not doing anythingsilly the worst that will happen is the truck falls onto its side.

Whenever negotiating a sideslope I get her to close her window incase we go over. The glass wont protect her but it will stop her instinctively putting her hand out to stop herself falling and getting it crushed.

I would take Lewis up on his offer, I would b completely comfortable with him behind the wheel!
