Luton Hoo LR driving experience - few pics
Took the Mrs to do the Luton Land Rover driving experience - just had to do it in a Disco
First stage was driving round the estate - with few steep descents and hill climbs, heavy mud and ruts and some reasonably deep pools.
Then on to the technical area, for more staged events including the bowl and pilots view. Amazing driving round that bowl the angle the disco was especially with slippery muddy tyres... I was sitting on the door card on my go!
First one ive done so got nothing to compare against, but was thoroughly great fun with great excellent relaxed tuition from Simon.
Photos don't do it justice.
Only bad thing is I did a few miles over the weekend and my stop/start has suddenly started working!!!!

Some cracking photo's - I went the other week, but forgot to take any pictures. We were taken around by DC and had a great time. I chose to do it in the RR - something different!
I thought it was better than Rockingham where I've been before - you get to go out and about a bit more around the estate.Sill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders

Looks like you had a great time! 8)
Wife and I are booked to go on one in May having just bought our D4. I hope they'll still have the D4's I May.
As an aside I see even the LR experience guys have to turn the heating up to 25c to keep comfortable! Stu

I notice they didn't have the climate on auto, which is odd.
Maybe that is why they don't have a problem, it's on manual !!!!!
