Ha, if it hadnt got 100 grand worth of extras weight it wouldnt have got stuck, most vehicles perform best in their standard form, modify them and you compromise something in one way or another.

Plus (as the LR Series driver said) the RR had 22'' road tyres on which will be absolutely useless on anything other than tarmac.
Classic case of more money than sense, wants the kudos of driving a £200k RR and playing in their new boat without understanding what a LR is capable of straight off the production line.

on a more serious note.....................Funny as hell though Rolling with laughter

Let the tyres down and a set of Max Trax, he would have driven out if he had the experience. 22" wheels make life very difficult off road. He wasn't stuck that bad or the old Landy would have been pulled into the mud instead. I've seen that happen before.
