Want a chuckle ? - The most capable off roader ever

&feature=fvwrel

This made me laugh. Looks completely flat; I wonder what tyres those are.
Mind you, it shows how you get nice even power to the front & back wheels !

With any luck the driver got some tuition and learned how to drive a FFRR offroad afterwards...
Having taken my old one offroad they are surprisingly capable, even on 20" factory road tyres. Thumbs Up

Different ground conditions.
In the first vid it's the wet slippery grass that's the problem.

The old fashioned way is to be gentle or back of the power too much like he does.
The FFRR like a big bootfull of power and then let all the electronics do what you paid for. Thumbs Up

You can see how steep a bit more here &feature=related

But then, I think this might make you tingle more ! &feature=related
(notice the camper van at about 0.33 moves out the way in case it falls on top of it !)
I wonder if a FFRR could get up that one ? - Do they have the same approach angles as defenders ?

Another steep one Shocked &feature=related

No, but they are rated at about the same gradient climb I believe.
Doesn't matter too much about the approach angle anway, a FFRR will drag it's ar$e on the floor as it goes up due to it's big bum. This stopped me on a trial in my FFRR, I could get up a slope, but had to stop before the rear bumber did an impression of a plough. Laughing

You need to get your FFRR off road and see what it can do. Thumbs Up
It's actually very impressive to see it first hand.

I might be wrong but I am pretty sure the 1st video has been tampered with. I think the FFRR is actually towing something but it's been removed. FFRR TD6 HSE
