The guy trying to pull the car down is one of the other instructors - Our driver (who said he was the No. 1 instructor) radio'd all the cars out on the course to meet up and watch. Thought it was just a usual 'show off' technique but apparently not done before.

Thanks for posting video brought back some very good memories. I went there early this year and had a great day. I got a freebie by entering a competition on the land rover web site, but paid some money when i got there so that I could dive. My instructor was Ronnie & he was very good and let me drive over the elephants feet & lots of other obsticles. After which I was even more pleased with my choice of auto Fl2. I'd stongly recommend going on the Land rover experience if you get the offer. George |

Good team at Consiton Hall - Adrian did my level 1 in a Disco2 then I had Ronnie for level 2 (morning in D2 then pm in Defender). Adrian then gave me and Mrs B our free half day (sales) trial in FL2 before I decided to buy and I had a differnt guy take my full day in FL2 later. Since then I had a go round the farm and quarry at the Gt Yorks Showground with Ronnie as part of Ripon LR's 2009 winter event. They are doing it again in January.

My instructor at Coniston, North Yorks was Glen Mckeith, a senior instructor with seemingly no nerves at all. A very decent guy and fund raiser for African charities. See his web site here if you're interested.

Another thumbs up for Glen, we had a half day in RR a couple of weeks ago and Glen looked after my wife, she wasn’t sure at first but she really enjoyed the day and Glen and team were great, as we were nearly an hour late for the start. |
