On it's own? Gaylander? It can break down on it's own if you mean that. Or get some parts broken off.

He didnt say it's a good one tho.
And even a gaylander being called a jeep implies it is not.

and i've seen one in action when we all went out laning. the only thing it lacked was ground clearance ( compared to chavved up discos ) in the deep ruts,but skillful driving avoided any memorable situations !

Yep agreed. Bit more ground clearence would be the first thing to add to a standard freelander. The traction control system seem setup to work miricles. With extra ground clearence, it would be a lot more capable.

You should have driven with a friend of mine in a Niva!
I think your statement applies to any car. Bad driver in good car is worse than good driver in bad car (lots worse). In fact, I think a good driver makes the most important part of the car...

Yaaaar
Them Niva's are awesome:lol:

yep, you have all the comfort and a better road car with not quite as good off road capabilities.The fender/series are a world apart from the lander as they are trattor work horses . But saying that when I owned a disco all I wanted was a fender.Now I own a series all I want is a slightly longer series and better heaters
....and maybe a more comfy seat

checked the fan and taken out all the old lower dash so have the fan blowing through the heat exchanger into into the 2 tubes to the window vents....just demists the passenger side and demists about 2/3 of the drivers side !
