@mrkbjm aaaahhhhhhhhhh ................... what Disco. It's a Defender Extreme - very different vehicle to a Disco. Running with a little bit of water over the bonnet like that is nothing for a Defender. Good photos & vids in this post, and the backing music's not bad either.

4x4 all the way mate you only ride a mountain bike cause you obviously cannot afford a good 4x4 hahaha

1+m in a petrol engine? Hmmm my GU Patrol (petrol) is rated at 700mm. I think mu son has borrowed it with a bow wave over the bonnet.

@63yogi

Can only speak from experience, good vehicle preparation and smart driving. these vehicles are not standard.

If you are happy driving a $30-50,000 vehicle through deep water you can test their rating for a standard vehicle, however.... there are techniques to minimize water ingress to the engine bay and the RB30s are particularly well sealed from water into the electrics.

Thanks Flash

I'll be have to look into it.

You guys are pussies. The only way to do Cape York is on a mountain bike.

@Focoist911

Yeah we used a couple of those bikes for traction under our tyres to get up one of the slippery creek banks, trouble is they are so light the frames twist and get caught under the mudguards. Oh well!

[TheMarshy72]

@Focoist911 Well your just a total fuckwitt then ant you. why don't you fuck off back to your poofy mountain bike serch cock smoker......& comment on there tight shorts faget....

@Focoist911 If i diddnt have a licence idd say that too

[Focoist911]

You guys are pussies. I did all these crossing on a Mountain Bike. Crocs dont mess with me. 9mm glock to the head if any of them pull up.

[Focoist911]

Is this Jardim River? It would be nice if you guys had told us what crossings they are.

very nice video! i have to say the defender driver is very lucky to have made it without any damage, thats not the way to do water crossings. any water over the hood is suicidal. heh... especially in a new land rover! well done

[26karto]

[rumerboyz]

[c1hampio1n]
