We had been planning a trip into the Lakes since before Xmas so even with the bad weather we decided to give it a go. It wasn't ideal filming weather and I had to throw quite a lot of footage away.

It was interesting because of the mix of vehicles. All Land Rovers but with my newer TDCi 110, a 300TDi 90 and then a nice D3, it made for some interesting comparisons.

The D3 was running road tyres and other than having to take a careful line through the rocks and its electronics scrabbling for traction here and there, it coped admirably!

Just as an aside, a few people (quite a lot really) have said my films get spoilt by the cheesy license free music I use (**** Styley even). So I had a go at creating my own for this film. Any opinions from people who have seen my earlier stuff would be appreciated?

 

pretty landscape, as usual. bow chicka wow wow.

 

Another good video of really lovely countryside. Your music was fine but then I thought it was fine on other videos you have posted. Keep em coming.

 

Cheers for the feedback

 

ellebarto, is that wrap still holding up?

 

Yeah it is absolutely brilliant. The only issue I do have is cleaning it. After a trip I jetwash it and it appears clean or at least mud free but then the next day it has a layer of a sort of dirty dust over it all. If I then jetwash it again its ok. I guess its because the water kinda clings a bit to the vinyl.

Certainly protected it from brambles and gorse and no rips or tears.

 

awesome video.. i would love to take my d2 on something like that... to bad i dont trust it yet... lol
