What a shame about the terrible music.......
man I LOVED these videos back in the day. Some of personal favorites!
thanx Tex - we are dying to get back and do some more but that won't happen until late next year at the earliest, unfortunately. Glad you enjoyed them. We loved making them.
MERCI beaucoup du partage de cette aventure. Nous en faisons en Espagne mais un peu moins difficiles.
“As slow as possible. As fast as necessary“ 👍🏻🙏🦘
Fantastic, thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure mate - just glad we were able to get it back. Now just need to find a way to upres to HD as we could only get SD format.
Fantastic, thanks for sharing.
no probs - glad you're enjoying it.
What the heck where ya been lads?
ah - that's a tale for another time but the short version is that the collapse of our main NAS drives with ALL of our videos on them including raw and edits died and couldn't be recovered. 10 years of footage gooone. So much for latency backup systems.
I remember the first time this video was published way back when. Still terrific stuff - you were my favourite channel back then.
Thanks Charles - very kind of you to say mate. Let's hope we can get back to making some new content for you next year sometime.
What do you feel was your biggest challenge on this trip?
Do you mean the entire Cape Trip for that year or just this section of the Tele mate?
@@Misadventure4WD The entire trip.
@@kevinslifeonthefarm2463 It was pretty much as expected really. We went there looking for adventure and we found it. We'd done tonnes of research so we knew what to expect and had good plans plus good back-up plans. We weren't expecting to drown a vehicle where we did but we recovered it safely and everyone was able to continue the trip. It's always hard juggling lots of competing priorities and traveling styles but everyone had signed off on the trip plan beforehand and we'd done a few test trips with that specific group so we knew everyone would get on reasonably well. We got pretty lucky with the weather and did almost everything we planned to do which was a blessing. The most unexpected thing was having a wheel bearing seize on the camper coming back down from the Tip and having a wheel come off destroying the axle. We ended up being stuck for 5 days in Bamaga. Managed to get creative with the insurance and lodged the claim via phone but got permission to do the repairs ourselves and submit the full claim later. While that meant paying for everything up front, it was the only way to get back on the road quickly. Contacted the camper manufacturer and found out that they got their shafts from a supplier in QLD. Called that supplier and paid them extra to make one up next day and ship it. Had it airfreighted to Bamaga and installed 4 days after the accident. The guy who used to own and operate Bamaga spares (Andy) was a lovely guy and did everything he could to help but had told me it would take two weeks to get parts organised, sent and installed. I told him I'd have it sorted in less than a week and he bet me a case of beer I couldn't do it so ended up with a nice case of coldies for the next leg ;) Andy also used to run a local shipping service and told me if I ever wanted a job to call 😂 The Old Coach Road was more challenging than expected and pretty stressful towing a camper. We did the western leg which is now closed. It's very hard going and there's no option but to go slow and steady or you'll just destroy your car and camper. We had to skull drag the camper off a few big ledges on that leg snapping our jockey wheel off and damaging the support legs but we got through and managed to find work arounds. The bigger shock was getting back to Cairns to find out the ABS module had burned out due to the brake line breakage and they wanted $5k to replace it. That a story for another time though :)
@@Misadventure4WD thank you for taking a few moments to answer me. I appreciate it.
Any plans for a comeback?
We did have a Grenadier on order mate but cancelled it after issues with parts avails and ongoing technical updates were apparent. Just couldn't justify the risk with a brand new vehicle from a brand new manufacturer for remotes travel in Oz. In the meantime, we are waiting on replacing a motor in our D4 but also looking around for alternatives as a stop gap for the next 3 years.
@@Misadventure4WD I hope you’re following LR Time.
Yea love to see yous make a come back
Thanks mate - I have been working on a plan for that but it's still just in the early stages. Life has a way of getting in the way of you having a life.
Ta very mucha.
I got a bit excited thinking you were back on the tracks. Hope to see more new content soon mate. Love the work.
Thanks mate - wish we were traveling again but that probably a next year thing at this stage. Getting closer though
Disco
What size tires on the sport?
32's
is this another different defender from the lasy one?
Yes mate - we wrote off the first SVX and took 12 months to find another one.
looks like fun!!!!!!! these videos make me love my Range Rover HSE even MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
gotta love the Rover!!!!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
If you have health problems, I wish you good health. Maybe one day you will go and film a wonderful journey along the old telegraph trail. This is what I wish for you.
I have a 2009 RRS and is there a kit somewhere to have a winch?. lol probably don’t need it but I want it 😂
There is an official Land Rover Kit available that includes the warn 9000 winch, mounting plates and brackets. there's not a lot of room to play with in there and only one of the winches fit the sport.
Hi Guys, I'm going to be building out my own RRS for a bit of offloading and overland trips. Would it be possible to be put in contact with the Black Betty owners as I have a ton of questions in their build? Regards Kelvin
Apols for the slow reply Kelvin. Have been out of action with health issues the last 9 months so haven't spent much time on the channel. I built Black Betty - Shoot me an email at [email protected]
Great... We liked and enjoyed to the end. Awesome... Full watched. Thanks Have a happy day!
Awesome capture 😮
Thanks for watching mate. Will be starting to post more travel stuff again in the new year :)
Is it v6
2.7 TDV6
Is it RRS sdv6
I love Wallaroo
Nice to see land rovers in their natural habitat, not quite sure I'd wanna my Range Rover that extreme, maybe I need to get myself a disco 2 as a toy 😂
Hi there, I really enjoyed your video, I am putting together an off road compilation of the Range Rover Sport, and wondered if you would like to be included?
KOOL LAND ROBOR 💪👍👍👍
what's that terrible beeping?
The Sport driver keeps trying to show off by turning his wheel when he shouldn't. Add to that the slicks he has on his rims and its no wonder he's doing the Range Rover no favours.
Impressive 3 wheeling! ! !
If you're like us and like to trek but are finding it harder as you get older, check out these compression socks. Game Changers. bit.ly/3YbBsW3
Where did you buy the spare tire holder on the red RRS?
We're not sure - the owner is from Melbourne.
Where did you get the snorkel for the grey RRS?
I conserned, how to install AT/MT tyres on rrs... Should it special arrangement with suspension done? Brakes supports are too big to fit disks less then 20, may be 19".....
You need special rims to go over the larger brakes and are very limited by tyre size options. You'll also need to be prepared to cut out some of the inner guard as they scrub.
Finally, someone has put on proper off-road tires. 👍
🤙
Czy była woda w środku po ostatnim brodzie?
Its not fair the last vehicle had mud type tyres.
It's up to each owner to set up their vehicle the way they want to and you definitely need to consider things like tyres in how each performed on this track.
Really enjoyable.. that confirms the tyres for me! Thank you
Hi have a rrs 2010 TDV8 what sort of rims and all terrain or muddy tyres can I put on it I have 20 in Mags at the moment
You're definitely limited with the TDV8 Bernard. We've heard of some owners swapping to the smaller brakes from a TDV6 and then fitting modified 18inch rims but that's not exactly legal. Start with finding out what modified rims you can fit and then look at tyre options. Keep in mind the rear wheel arches are smaller than the front and you will get scrubbing there if you go too big. You'll usually find you need to cut back the inner front guards as well and potentially shorten the overhang on the front chassis.
You don't drive on that shit. You sit it out. You wait. You don't even walk around.
Maybe check out the earlier comments about how we ended up in this situation Trickster. We checked everything including track openings with Nat Parks on the morning we left and followed a local through.
What have you replaced the RR with?
We have had a couple of SVX Defenders over the last 6 years and now have a 5.0ltr V8 Discovery 4. Funny enough they have all been black.
love seeing a range rover off road! really satisfying for some reason haha
Great video. Did you have any damage to the suspension after this? I just want to know if I can do this and not repair it every time . Cheers
No suspension damage. The independent suspension is pretty robust. We have broken a CV joint on rougher treks though but they aren't too hard to fix.
black ranger rover is so sick!
GOTTA LOVE THEM ROVERS!!!!!!!! CAN'T WAIT TO TAKE MINE OUT FOR A STROLL THROUGH THE WOODS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im going to have a look at a 2006 RRS tomorrow, but im a bit nervous with all the negative issues I keep reading about. However, it is good to see one being used off road
Only in a LAND ROVER it's a WAY OF LIFE. Great video. I'm the proud original owner of a 1957 Series 1 Diesel, and a 1965 Series 2A 109 Station Wagon Diesel. They have never let me down. LAND ROVER SERIES THE TRUE WORK HORSE OF THE WORLD. They're part of the family. Safe travels and journey. Greetings from Florida and the USA 🇺🇸 USA.
They do get into your blood - Thanks for dropping by to say hi mate
At 1.15, why the hell is the Rangey driver turning left? 😂 Dude needs to leave that thing on the road where it belongs!
