A short video of a trip we did back in December, just as the snow was starting to fall for what become three weeks of some of the heaviest snow we’ve had in the UK – just when you appreciate your Landy!
Rent-a-Ramp!
Interesting idea from local 4×4 specialists Overland Autos: they are thinking of a service where you can book one of thier ramps, get your own work done with your own tools, and also have expertise on hand for if you get stuck.
Saw this on thier facebook page – have a look and they are asking for feedback as to whether to run with this idea so if you think its a good one let them know!

Happy Valley: North Wales Greenlaning Adventure!
Just got the video edited from our wild-camping off-road trip in the mountains for North Wales. It was an awesome adventure, as good as it gets in the U.K. I reckon! With fellow members of the North Somerset Land Rover Club we drove Happy Valley and several other excellent lanes just south of Snowdonia National Park. We drove my Defender Hi Capacity pickup, a ‘proper’ greenlaning Discovery 1, and a classic Series IIa. All vehicles were more than up to the challenges and proved that Landy’s really can “Go Beyond”… Here’s the story of the trip, including 2 out of 3 Land Rovers taken out by a nasty axle-twisting gulley!

April Sunshine in the Lanes…
A day out around the lanes of North Somerset – the tracks were dry and dusty after 3 weeks of sunshine and no rainfall – what happened to “April Showers?”!
