    We must apologise for the sound issues, there are moments in there where TH-cam has softened the sound! Urrrrg how annoying!

    I did the Sani Pass twice. Loved it. Second time with a lot of slush but the Audi Q7 did it.

      That's amazing. Sani pass seams like a different pass depending on the weather you greated with on the day or that hour.. . Thanks for the comment and the taking the time to watch our video.

    What makes it even more remarkable is your courage to drive it in a Landrover.

      100% Agreed, that’s why we had to jack the car up before we went down the hill again 😂🤣

      Used to tow my small boat (4.4m) on the beach with it too. Mozambique, Sodwana, Cape Vidal and numerous spots here in KZN. I live in Umdloti. The Subaru never failed to get us on and off the beach to spearfishing launch sites.

    Very entertaining.
    That pass is dangerous no matter what the wise guys have to say about it.
    We once went down the Sani in thick mist, but my son handled the Discovery like a pro.

    Sani Pass is doable if you are a good driver. I drove up to Sani Lodge in my Toyota Venture, not a 4 x 4. I was 38 years old, female with a son who was 8 years old. No 4 x 4 needed.

    • @justus.genstef
      @justus.genstef  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's great! I totally agree. No dont need a 4x4, if the weather is favourable. And the roads werent washing away. If we didn't have 4x4 we wouldn't have made it up and down would have sketchy! We are 3.7ton and a turning circle of a bus!

      Yes I've also seen 2 wheel drive cars going up there. In bad weather like we experienced it's a dangerous pass. That's why there has been so any accidents on this pass. Cars driving up and down that shouldn't for various reasons. So yes we thought it's a dangerous pass on the day we did it!
