As a new owner to a disco 3 (I know not a favourite choice but I didn’t really have a choice 😂) I have a completely stock disco and would like to attempt some of these lanes in the new year. Can anyone offer advice on what mods would be best. It’s a TDV6 HSE stock 19s no mods. I haven’t been to these lanes for about 10-15 years and would like to make the most of owning a landy again
Some tyres will go a long way definitely! Go out with other people as well just in case you get stuck. As you go down the lanes you will find out what your truck needs when it gets stuck or finds a section hard 👍
Good video footage got a few of us with quads where best place to start and end any help be appreciated
@@jadelovessam cheers mate what lanes are you doing? Usually if you go north to south that’s a good direction with most of them
Not sure yet has coming from Oxford so let me no where best to start and finish is the a loop to get back to start? Or book bed breakfast and 2nd day work back? Thanks
Ah nice, yeah could start north/mid wales and do bastard lane and strata Florida, then head down and do a few more, red lane is a bit more south so you could end with that. Or you can do it in the opposite order, we sometimes prefer driving furthest then working our way back closer to home so the drive back isn’t as far👍
Hi luke done most of them, great bunch of lanes not to sure on your hill lanes if I've done them, fo you have a TW2 track code for them? Was the 110 on standed suspension? Help resolve a argument I'm having with a friend 😂 As always great video
Hi mate they are good! Yes the 110 was on standard suspension, he has now changed to a 2 inch lift which you will see in the next video! Uphill bumper lane , 52.491803, -3.924093 These are the coordinates for the uphill lane, let me know if you need anymore! Cheers mate 👍
Which Idiot wants to Blow his TD5 !!!!!!!!!- Revving the Bollacks when high Centred aint gonna do Jack Shit pal
great car meet great trail so gorgeous
Lovely group of trucks! And can’t beat some Welsh lanes 🤩
The problem with red lane is that clearly huge discos with 5 inch lifts and 34 inch tyres with front and rear diff lock, have dug the ruts out so deep that no, standard 4x4 can do it as easily anymore.
Yeah some sections there’s no point even doing, as they are so deep! Definitely need a good winch if you are attempting it, makes it good fun tho haha!
Nice video. That's Nant y Arian the lane up to the kite feeding and bike trails. The lane at 19:43 do you have the TWUID? I think I know which one it may be but want to check. Cheers
Thank you! Ah cheers always wondered what that lane was actually called thank you. Don’t have the TWUID as my membership has just ran out but these are the coordinates, 52.491803, -3.924093, let me know if that’s the right one, cheers
@@lukegibbins2271thanks a lot. Yeah that's the right one. How was it? Read some comments on TW2 saying how bad it was? But didn't look awful in your video.
@@edwardmeakes1284no it’s not too bad but we were coming down it. We’ve driven it a few times coming up there’s a few challenging but you can always put some rocks down to help get up!
@@lukegibbins2271thanks for your response. Happy laning!
@@edwardmeakes1284 what is the Tw2 ID?
It looks like you drove around all the difficult bits.
I think only a tank would be able to do some of those bits! Would like to see someone try but they are a lot deeper than they look so we thought we better not risk it haha
@@lukegibbins2271 I did the tough bits on red lane in my D1 yesterday after all this weather we've just had, water nearly upto the windows inside had to winch all the way through 🤣
@@connorhynes5528 I’m not surprised! 😂 fair play for going through it. We may be doing a trip in January so we’ll see how it is then!
Red Lane, there is nothing more challenging on a snowy March evening😂🥶
We will have to give that a go next time sounds exciting!😂
Red Lane, there is nothing more challenging on a snowy March evening😂🥶
the driver of that black 90 has a screw loose
He loves it!
It gladens my heart to see that abomanation been towed by the genuine article
@@timcook4157 it was very ironic haha!
NEVER SEE A DAIHATSU FOURTRACK IVE HAD A FEW AN THEY ARE A GREAT BIT OF KIT ...
We’ve seen a few on the lanes they do look good!
awesome lads..
Thanks 👍
Great video and quality. Music is a annoying though, much rather listen to a td5, but that’s just personal preference 😂
Thanks for the comment, I am editing another trip we have just been on and was contemplating whether to have no music in this one, so that was good timing! 😂
D2 cruised through
Yeah did well!
What happened with the toy car. I mean Defender 😂
What defender are you talking about? 😂
the new is really horrible
Didn’t perform great in the mud but was really good on the rocks to be fair!
Ineos is the new Defender (G class too)...
Hi Do you need some great lighting for your car to help you better driving, off-road? We're the pro auto lighting company for nearly 20 year and hoping to do some sponsorship with you!
Thanks Auxbeam, if you send me an email then we can discuss this further, l.c.creatives00@gmail.com, thank you!
@@lukegibbins2271 Sure! We send the details to your email! Looking forward to hear from you!
Ruined…don’t need music…
Thanks for the feedback Simon, I’ll take this on board for future videos👍
Who’s in the new defender do they have a TH-cam account
No they don’t just a friend who came along for the trip 👍
hot wheelin action!
Good fun!
Lads we've got a defender 90 and id love to start getting evolved in going off road. any chance you could help make that happen
Nice mate 👍 Wales is a great place lots of easy tracks and hard tracks. Trailwise is a great membership to get to find green lanes all over the country!
🇧🇭🙏🏼🙏🏼🇧🇭🙏🏼
Where is this
It’s called splashy lane in Wales, if you type that in it will come up 👍
The new piece of shit is getting towed everywhere. 🤣
Yeah it didn’t do very well in that deep mud, didn’t like it 😂
Better luck next time 👍
Amazing filiming Guy's
Thanks for the comment, appreciate that👍
Some shite tyre choices there
Needs some muds or land dragons ideally!
I own a 03 -TD5 ..130 County ..had it from new ..I’ll never part with that ..I was watching the turning circle on the 130 in the vid ,has he got wheel spacers on that ?..Disco 2 the best looking motor there ( thinking man’s LR)😆.
Thanks for the comment, no it doesn’t have any spacers, haha yeah the D2’s are a good truck 😄
Het lets be a bunch of twats and go around tearing up the countryside.
Looks rough. I recomend an 80 series. Ya welcome mate
Yeah that would be good, see how it performs with the Land Rovers
If you get stuck in the mud change up a gear instead of revving the tit's of it 😎
Oh really does that help you get out? Haven’t heard that tip before😅
Enjoyed this. i wonder if these Landrovers have front to rear diff lock. Looks like it was needed in some of the parts.
Hi there thanks for the comment, all of them had the standard difflock but none had front or rear lockers, just good drivers haha😉
Great watch. I’ve just bought a 1995 defender 90 300tdi too - you lot ever in Dorset?
Ah nice! I’m looking at maybe buying a defender 300tdi. We don’t normally go down that way we are usually in Wales, Peak District and Lake District. But we have plans to go to some other places for a change of scenery!
Guys, I watched your video with an open mind but as a disabled driver of a landrover & greenlanes being my only access as I can't walk, I'm gutted by your video. If you want to go play & hey, we all love that. Please do it on a payday where it doesn't matter. Don't ruin my limited access please as this is exactly why lanes are getting closed to us. If you enjoy lanes, great, I hope to meet you on one some day 🙂 but please pick your time of year to help us all keep them open.
To be fair that lane is pretty bad but you can see from the others that we did, that we aren’t trying to go out a ruin the lanes. We’ve been doing it for years and always try to have minimal damage and disruption 👍 thanks for the comment
@@lukegibbins2271 there is a ethos of walking the lane where possible and making an educated decision on whether to use it based on if your use will make it worse for others, we've previously not used lanes that are bad because it will make it worse or there is a high likelyhood of recovery. Personally, I'd not have taken the ruts route, and done some form of track maitenance, something you never see these days, it's like it's a "not my problem" but contributing to the damage it really is your cause. so bear that in mind when making this sort of content, drain the mud ruts and cut out the centre into the ruts. It if keeps going like it is, then it'll end up needing taller tyres every year and then they'll close the lanes to everyone for good. none of us want that. Please take it on as the lane is your responsibility to make sure it's left as good or better than you found it.
Landrver td5 has v8 engnine
They are all TD5 engines 👍
Hey, great vid - enjoyed watching, looks great fun. I'm in the market for a Defender 90 to start doing this myself (newbie to offroad) and trying to do my home work on what to look for. Any advice at all? (UK based) - does it matter wether its a 1990s era Defender or a early 2000s, so long as there is no rust? Would appreciate any tips. Thanks
Hey thanks for the comment👍 yeah it depends what engine you want if you’re looking at the year ( td5 or 300tdi) there is an endless debate as to what is better but the TD5’s are the newer engines. You can find lots of information as to what would suit you or what you would use it for. But yeah rust is the main thing, oil leaks, whether it’s been modified, etc. looking at MOT history is always a good start👍
Thanks@@lukegibbins2271 ! the MOT tip was a good one, wiped off most of my "watch" list for, for sale Defenders I'd saved and the comment on the td5. Cheers!
Yeah MOT is a simple check but definitely worth doing for sure!
Which lane was the second one with the river crossing?
Hi there it’s currently got a TRO on it but the grid reference is (54.2959030, -3.0263350) if you have trailwise then search SD3389-04
@@lukegibbins2271 thanks mate
The older defenders 100x better than the Neww ones
Yeah can’t beat the old girls! 💪
This looks like the best evidence for winter TRO,s ever .
To be fair I think it’s usually like that, hadn’t rained that much before we went
What is TRO?
@@GunsAndRovers temporary road closure normally in the winter months to stop the complete distruction of the trail that is ment to be for all users .
@@GunsAndRovers traffic regulation order
all those landrovers are amazing, but i have to say the Disco 2 seemed to handle everything with ease!
Yeah it did very well! Have to give credit to the driver as well haha!
Superb video. Used to do some ‘green laning’ with my mates about 15 years ago. Similar to the first part of your video. Great fun and you always had to be willing to get covered in mud. It made the experience feel more authentic. Some lovely camera shots and the drone gives a great atmosphere view. Especially love those full twist moments like at 19.41 where the rear tyre is pushed hard up into the wheel arch yet the front is at full stretch and still can’t quite reach terra firma. Nice music and you let the action do the talking. Keep em coming Luke Cheers (expat down here in Sydney) 🇦🇺🇬🇧
Thank you for the comment I appreciate it! Ah you should get back out there on the lanes (especially down under I’ve seen some amazing videos there!) yes lots of mud especially this time of year haha! Thank you for the comment and yes more to come👍
Just out of interest would you say there was any advantage the mud terrain guys had over the all terrain ones. Looking for a new sets of tyres on my 90. Currently on G90s
I would say on the tracks we did there wasn’t a massive difference but more so for getting through mud it’s obviously going to help more, and a bit more grip on rocks etc. Just depends what you’ll use them for and the price difference I would say, hope this helps👍
Thanks for the reply. In reality I do very little off road. When I do isles mostly farm tracks and round field edges through woods etc. nothing like what you guys get up to although it goes look very entertaining. The G90s have done very well for the past 15 years but now the decision is do I have a change or stick with what I’ve got. I probably only do 2000 miles a year
@@peterdinnage8021 I would maybe say go with the all terrains then, a lot better for road driving and a lot quieter, especially if you say you’re not doing a lot of off roading 👍
@@lukegibbins2271 a friend suggested all terrains and a set of "sand ladders" if i get really stuck. another said he never got stuck with mud terrains but did with all terrains. I did have to pull that particular friend out of a field. ford ranger with trailer all up to its axels 😀 maybe its wasnt the best of moves going in there in the first place
Yeah that’s it, maybe all terrains and then either a set of ‘sand ladders,maxx tracks or waffle board’ (all basically the same thing) will help you if you do ever get stuck. Oh yeah I’m not surprised he did get stuck by the sounds of it 😂
Great video! I’m intrigued the 1st lane the new 90 seemed to be towed all the way through? Was it not capable enough in that mud and ruts? It seemed not to have air suspension and skinny at tyres so I’m guessing not? It looked like it did great on the 2nd lane.
Thanks for the comment! Yes it struggled a bit with the deep ruts and standard tyres, ideally need a lift and grippy tyres. But was fantastic on the 2nd lane, very capable👍
Was going to ask the very same question regarding the new 90 but the question had already been asked. 😊👍
Yeah I think a lift and it would be 10x better 👍
Lower the tyre pressure on all them vehicles they look rock hard your not on tarmac no more
Yeah always a tricky one when you’re going from tarmac road to track and then back on road, whether to air down to then air back up. But would have definitely helped!
well yeah i surpose its a bit tricky in the uk as the lanes are not very long and wouldn’t be as fun as you would just drive down them normally ahah with hard tyres makes it a bit more fun on the short lanes 😂😂great video anyway mate 👌
@@joehudz8584 yeah just makes it more exciting haha😂 thanks mate appreciate that! 👍
Great video, beautifully produced. Looks like you guys had an amazing time. If i could have any one of those on the driveway it would have to be the 110 Puma for me please 😊
Thanks for the comment👍 haha yes she is a good looking truck! 🤩
I thought revving the balls off your 4x4 was completely against good practice when stuck ??
Each to their own methods, can be a higher risk of breaking something if you plant your foot though!
All the gear, no idea 😂
@@sliderdriver1 sometimes you gotta go for it haha!
Yes it is. These idiots are giving ramblers and horse riders the evidence they need to get green lanes closed to vehicles.
In mud it depends, if you have MT tyres sometimes it’s better to rev it up to clear the mud off the tread.
Wow! Great video! The guy with the new Defender deserves all our respect for not hasitating to test his new vehicle on such a tuff road. I also loved how you put your cars while camping. It reminded me about how pioneers used to do in the Wild West. Good job my friend!
Thank you! Yes he did well got stuck in! Yes it’s a great campsite we go there a lot!
👍👍🙏🙏@@lukegibbins2271
Nice video, but maybe next time lower the music.
Thanks mate, I’ll keep that in mind for the next one cheers!👍
Was the new defender on air suspension or on coils
Think on coils but not 100% sure, needs a lift regardless to cope with that mud haha!
