YES a series III land rover is fully capable of dragging a one tonne bag of sand down the garden.



YES the tonnne bag WILL split when it gets dragged over hardcore.


Next time wait until there is snow on the ground ;-)

YES. one was also "fully capable" of doing some serious damage to my car when its idiot driver decided to reverse without checking his rear 'was clear' first!

Yes, they are built pretty tough. This one has an EX MOD tow bar thingy on it.

Deeply dangerous.

And no brakes. Must have lost the fluid somewhere.

Ah well. SORN.

Did they have brakes, or were they an option extra like the "heater"?

Gosh. This is series III you know. Even has/had a winsscreen washer.

Sheesh. Coulda told *you* that.

'Cept it was a Discovery.

Mine had a heater - it had three settings:

Off - Still Off - It Must Be On Because It Says So

What really helped was fitting a new blower motor and sealing up the leaks in the heater tubing junctions.

Unlike a IIa where you had to park behind a cow and wait for it to piss.
