What a disappointment1
This looks like a DVD that Land Rover might give away with a new Land Rover, or maybe even with just a test drive. The first section covers preparation of your Land Rover. It is about ten minutes and deals with bringing the right wellies, first aid kit, shovel etc etc. Although the vehicles are shown with winches, snorkels and other after market kit, no mention is made of them in this section, or in any other section. The second section deals with driving off road and is further broken down into about 5 subsections, driving on snow and ice, driving in water etc. Again no mention is made of snorkels which are shown fitted on the Defender when it is wading through water. In the Driving on Beach section, the recovery operation makes no mention of winches, though the vehicle is fitted with one! I didn't time the second section which is the only relevant section, but I would say it is about 20 minutes long.
The third section, Fragile Earth, shows Land Rovers being built, 1 minute, but then concentrates on how great Land Rover are by supporting this and that charity. Who cares?! This bit goes on for about 15 minutes and is really a promo video.
The video is slick, with appropriate music, but as regards giving information on off road driving, it is useless. A complete waste of money!!

Great DVD5
What a DVD! I bought this dvd with some intrepididation as the last i had heard wasnt the best, really shocked with the improvement. I have this dvd running during my local club meetings and it adds an element of dynamics to our normally mundane club talk.
Well authored and excellent production, a credit to its author.

Full of useful information5
This dvd helped me greatly in preparing for a trip round some of Englands green lanes. From giving useful information on the type of equipment I should take to how to go up and down hills. It was full of really useful information.
