fuel range????????295 viewsfilled tank up and climbed the 21 hairpins into Alpe d\'Huez 1860m - as you can see the projected fuel range (due to the climb) suffered. The reality was different as it used virtually no fuel on the descent.

Start of easy hill climb171 viewsTR mode Rock Crawl - although I did turn off Hill Descent as the other side was not too steep and she wanted to keep slowing dramatically which I didn't appreciate in convoy. (Where is my old Pajero that had the inclinometer?)

Rest stop after our first hill descent.190 viewsMode: TR Rock Crawl with HDC turned off as I found that the ABS kicked in too much. As we were in convoy I maintained a safe distance from car in front and just "feathered the brakes" as suggested by an instructor.

I replaced the incadescent license plate bulbs with new 6-LED bulbs for a cleaner look.420 viewsI was following a 2006 Lexus ES and noticed their license plate bulbs are now using LEDs, so I thought the same thing would look good on the rover.

Dune Descent92 viewsNo picture seems to do sand dunes justice in terms of their scale and beauty. This was a 100 metre dune (according to the GPS track profile anyway)in the driest, softest sand that behaved like a liquid as you descend the slope. Low 1st, DSC and HDC off and feathering the throttle was the technique used and the descent happens under full control.
