JEEPers thats a bit silly, i mean surely if they have run out of fuel or something they could have let momentum take it down unless hte engine or transmission has let go? I cant see why it is dangerous though as surely the vehicle looks semi prepped for such a journey and they have obviously stopped as they felt it was unsafe to carry on for whatever reason?

Semi prepped fair enough; IMEO, vauxhall frontera, still pretty lame. No hdc weak diff etc

Over the years I have raised money for charity, the last being a round Britain road trip raising £20K, my current idea is to ride jets skis from the UK to France and back. One of my other thoughts is to do the Three Peaks Challenge in 24 hours in a Range Rover...do you think this is possible?

The sales guys at LPR did it last year with a Disco4 in 22 hours IIRC 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes |

22 hours, thats pretty good. I might look into it a bit more...how you would get permission..the route to take...insurance etc. How about a small convoy and sponsorship, we could raise a few grand for charity? Current MY2020 Gone: 1 x L405 and 2 x L322's |

Know a few people who have done the 3 peaks. Don't think you need any permission. The lads trained quite bit and had a good crew. Drivers and support workers. The hard bit was the driving. [img]http://www.fuelly.com/driver/rob2529/range-rover[img/]
