Off road driving experience taster

Hi

I would like to book my wife an off road driving experience course, but specifically for a Freeland 2 Auto, nothing too extreme just so she can see what the vehicle is capable of.

None of the ones I have found used Freelanders

Any suggestions, I live nr Manchester

Many thanks Ian

I very much doubt that any off road driving school will be using Freelander 2 . The only places that ever did were LandRover Experience centres , they ceased to offer FL2 around 2014 when production ceased and replaced them with Disco Sports . All their cars are automatics . I don’t know what they have on their fleets now , but if a Disco Sport is there it’s going to be the nearest in size capability . The nearest LR Experience to you is probably Skipton . 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

Depending on how you look on your own Freelander, you will probably only be able to demonstrate the Freelanders capabilities by using your own.
To start with, on an organised green lane tour.

So what are you driving, a Chelsea tractor or just a tractor?

At least if you use your own, she could then also experience the hose down after!

The Land Rover Experience at Skipton does evening sessions where you can take your own car and the instructors talk to you via radio. Not done one yet with my Freelander but plan to! It's on their facebook page and not a million miles away.
