L460 and light offroading

Hello all,

Been a while since I've been regularly on these forums as having not spent a lot of time in an FFRR (other than the one back home in Kenya occassionally).

The opportunity has arisen for me to go back to Kenya again for a few years and with that a car.

I'm wondering if anyone here has used their L460 for light offroading - thinking dirt tracks, some muddy / rutted lanes and hilly / stony paths?

I ask as I'm stuck between taking a landcruiser (LC300) or perhaps sticking to a newer FFRR to run alongside our aging L322 (think it has a few years left). They will both cost the same and head is telling me landcruiser but heart says FFRR.... !

For context, the car will be used for long journeys through all sorts of terrain, including dirt / gravel roads (that will not be smooth), muddy tracks (dry and wet) and the sort of terrain you see in the masaai mara / national parks (driving from gate to camp but not doing the actual game drives in).

I know they advertise the off-road capability, but has anyone reliably done this without it causing a lot of hassle and expense! MY11 Vogue 4.4 TDV8 - "African Queen"

Much as I love my L460, for that sort of very regular light off roading, I suspect I might go for a new Defender.... 2024 Range Rover P550e AB

Thanks and fair point, hadn't considered the defender as wanted a large barge.

Conscious the current defender is nothing like the original one so I'll go and have a nosey. MY11 Vogue 4.4 TDV8 - "African Queen"

I had a 90 for a while and they are superb cars. If I needed a large barge, I'd definitely consider the 130. The boot is seriously big. 2024 Range Rover P550e AB
