Off-Roading in Classic Land Rovers | Driving.ca

Ever see a penguin walk around? Their tall bodies wobble around precariously on top of short, stubby legs as they waddle slowly from place to place.
This is a lot like how an older Land Rover goes down the road - they’re slower than your average Toyota Camry, they lean precariously on off-ramps, and they’re hardly smooth over expansion joints and potholes.
But the penguin is transformed when it hops into the water: suddenly that awkward form becomes a bullet-shaped projectile underwater; agile and fast, a creature designed for one purpose. And when the tires leave the pavement, a Land Rover comes into its element.
