Learning the hard way ?

David's Red Ninety has got him through hell and high water - and its got stuck a few times too - Fortunately David enjoys getting his winch out!

I will start with Attachment Points, followed by Towing, Jacking and Winching articles. Alongside this I will refresh the site regularly by adding Off-Road Driving Techniques, in which I will teach right from the basics how to prepare your vehicle and drive it safely off-road.


For this whole series I will probably use my V8 Ninety as the main vehicle in the pics. My red Ninety is very dear to me as it has got me through hell and high water and back again on many occasions over the years. I've been using it since 1988. It's done me very proud, but it's not quite the same underneath! The original V8 got rather tired, so in early 2000 it got a transplant - a 3.9 Efi from a mid nineties Discovery - it's lovely! Sometimes I use our blue Tdi Ninety, it's so much cheaper to run, but give me a V8 any day.


Enjoy reading the following pages and come back every month for more.

P.S. Should you have any photographs of any of your experiences of things not quite going according to plan whilst off-roading or during recoveries, which could highlight some of my articles, please let me have them along with a caption or story on what happened.


Also if you have any photographs of your involvement with the 'launch of the One Ten' meeting or the 'Keep Land Rover British' event, they would also be appreciated.


Of course credit to you will be given under each picture.
