Amazing 'puddle splash' action and extreme 'dirt road' driving. The last 2 seconds tell all though  One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS

That's really funny. They would have had more clearance and done better in a VW Beetle.
Like the defender in the background probably as the safety vehicle to pull most of those X5's through the obstacles. Nice find |

I think they were close to the maximum wading depth. The bottum of the rim.

Great video, can't understand why they went through that puddle, don't the realise that it will get the rear view camera dirty!! If you can't climb on it, don't drive it!

Don't worry
is the new advertisement strategy of Land Rover Marketing........ At the end the CLEAR message is: OK you drove X5 in sand highway but if you want to do the REAL off road please buy Defender....... and the Defender is the last photogram and thats mean that the defender is "memorized" strongly!!!!

Actually - that would make a very strong social media campaign  One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS
