Land Rover Experience Yorkshire
Just wanted to say a huge thank you to the Land Rover erxperience instructors at the Coniston experience centre.
Having been driving Land Rovers for 10+ years I was massively suprised to learn a great deal on a Defender only day. The anti stall facility and traction control when used properly are really invaluable. The instructor could tell straight away I was used to series Land Rovers off road but by the end of the day I was much more gentle on the Defender. Thumbs Up

Really was a brill day and a big eye opener. Thanks Bow down

Never knew there was one there! I thought you meant Coniston, Lake District at first! An engine to TDi for!

Was this a free voucher trip or something different for it to be Defender only?

At a guess I'd say the chap who took you round was called 'Em' (for short) ?

If I'm honest I can't remember the chaps name but he was one of the top boys there.
It was a dealer only event for sales execs I was on.

I've done plenty of off roading before but this was brilliant learning to drive with the technology now on the Defender instead of using the normal methods as on older models.

As a life long Land Rover fan these opportunities are fantastic but the folk there using their vouchers were equally thrilled at their experience there after speaking to them during the day.
