Start your engines...

T

he nights are drawing in, the weather is no longer capable of bringing you a glowing complexion and your Land Rover seems to be coming into its own with each and every passing day.

Clearly then, it must be nearly time for the Great British Land Rover Show.

On Sunday 24 November, you can come down to the NAEC at Stoneleigh Park, near Coventry, and be mesmerised by the spectacle that is the UK’s largest indoor Land Rover show.

This year we’re in new halls packed with over 80 exhibitors, all armed with the best Land Rover parts and accessories around, all waiting to be taken home with you, perhaps as one of a selection of early Christmas presents… But best check with the partner first!

For you and your Land Rover to enjoy some quality time together, where better to kill an hour or two than at Stoneleigh’s very own 2.4-mile off-road course, which will once again be mar-

shalled by the All Wheel Drive Club.

Make it a cheap date by purchasing your tickets in advance, though, as on the day off-road course admissions rise from £10 to £15.

Another new addition to this year’s show is the introduction of club stands within the main arena, whereby the club section – sponsored by Paddock Motors – will bring together Land Rover communities from all across the UK. And finally, we welcome the Adventure and Outdoor Leisure Zone to the GBLRS, a section devoted to those adventure seekers among us who may be looking for inspiration on where to travel to next, or globetrotters just starting out requiring some help in choosing their overland equipment.

All this and more can be found at within the halls at this year’s show, with advanced tickets still available at £7.50 per person and you can still grab yours by heading to the following website: www.greatbritishlrshow.com.

Enjoy the show.

Trivial Pursuit W

e all know that owning a Land Rover can be your gateway to adventure, whether that be travelling the world or exploring a stone’s throw from your own doorstep.

And at Stoneleigh Park on 24

November, the Great British Land Rover Show will give you the chance to prepare and for your next big trek, whilst allowing for some instant fun on the day.

The off-road course at Stoneleigh will once again be operational and run

by the All Wheel Drive Club, allowing Green Oval machines of all shapes and sizes to tackle the 2.4-mile set of tracks, with sections for novice drivers as well as more seasoned individals.

Grab your tickets in advance for just £10 and you’ll save £5, and you can grab yours by heading to the following website: greatbritishlrshow.com.

Back inside the bustling show halls, you can plan for trails further afield with the Adventure and Outdoor Leisure Zone, made up of companies specialising in everything an overlander could need. From roof tents to stoves, and fridge freezers to jacks, this is the ideal place to get the equipment, inspiration and advice for any trips you may be planning next year or beyond.

Don’t miss out on the season finale at the NAEC, with the eighth instalment of the Great British Land Rover Show.

GREAT BRITISH LAND ROVER SHOW

Still breaking new ground

M

ud-terrains come and mud-terrains go, but for almost four decades BFGoodrich has been the name behind THE Mud-Terrain. Earlier this year the company launched its new Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 – the third-generation version of a tyre which has become a ‘Hoover’ brand in the world of off-roading.

With the arrival of the KM3, BFG says it has ‘introduced technologies that further improve climbing, traction and toughness in the mud and over rock.’ The company promises a five percent improvement in traction on soft ground compared to the old KM2, thanks to ‘mud-phobic’ bars on the tyre’s shoulders which aid self-cleaning by ejecting compacted material.

They’re aided in this by the tyre’s ‘Terrain-Attack’ tread pattern, whose large blocks are designed to grip on to hard ground, or bite into softer surfaces, whatever the angle of approach. BFG says the tyre’s compound makes it eight percent more effective than the KM2 over rocks, with a ‘Linear Flex Zone’ designed to wrap around hard surfaces when running at low pressures.

Performance over muddy and rocky surfaces alike is aided by notches in the tyre’s shoulders, which flow down into a ‘Traction-Armor Sidewall Sculpture’ whose reinforced structure helps

prevent damage to the most vulnerable part of the carcass.

The sidewalls themselves are now an astonishing 27% tougher than the previous model’s, thanks to BFG’s CoreGard Max technology – as used on its Baja T/A KR3 desert-racing tyres – which helps prevent splitting or puncturing, with increased thickness to protect the ‘critical sidewall failure zone.’

BFGoodrich says the KM3 ‘was designed to conquer the toughest off-road challenges with extreme sidewall protection, pinch shock resistance and chip-and-tear resistance on gravel.’ But just as importantly, it also offers ‘solid street performance and acceptable on-road noise levels for the drives to and from the trail.’

‘The KM3 tyre is designed for extreme toughness and traction and is essential equipment for serious offroad enthusiasts,’ says BFG general manager Harold Phillips. ‘Whether simply driving for off-road fun, or the extreme capability to access outdoor

activities, this tyre was made to take drivers anywhere they want to go.’

The KM3 is currently in the middle of a phased launch which will ultimately see a total of 42 sizes available, 21 of them new, by January 2019.

Not all will be available in the UK, but you can stay abreast of developments by heading to their website www. bfgoodrich.co.uk.

One Life, Lived It

O

wning a Land Rover is more than simply owning a car.

For many, it’s a way of life, a statement of intent to seek out new lands and experience the world in its entirety, all at the helm of Solihull’s most capable child.

You exist beside your Land Rover, making memories and spending a lifetime as companions. But sadly, all good things come to an end.

When you or your loved one moves on from this world, it might not be possible to take the Land Rover along for the next leg of the journey, but there is a company out there that can ensure that final journey on Earth is completed with a Green Oval machine.

Bennetts Funerals specialise in providing funeral transport for those who lived and breathed the Land Rover life. Their fleet of bespoke Defenders includes a Defender 130 adapted for hearse duties and accommodating for a coffin, flowers and funeral staff, while a second Defender, this time a 110, offers seating for seven in what is the ideal following car and combination for Land Rover enthusiasts seeking the send-off that displays their passion best.

The team at Bennetts offer a profes-

sional service and will be at the Great British Land Rover Show to talk to you about potential plans in the future, no matter how near or far.

If you want to reach out to them prior

to the show, call 01277 210104 or visit www.landroverfunerals.com for further details on their services.

OF Clutches know their Land Rovers. Brought to you by long-standing Land Rover enthusiasts, they are dedicated to producing both long-life and performance clutches for our beloved Landies.

As with everything they do, you’ll get extremely high quality products,

whether they are for Defender, Discovery, Range Rover or Series vehicles, all whilst offering affordability.

Designed specifically for the Tdi, Td5 and TDCi engines, their parts are both heavy-duty but lightweight nonetheless, and LOF have three different grades of clutches that cater to everyone – from daily driver right through to race beasts.

The ROADspec is designed specifically for your road going daily-driver truck. If you do a bit of towing now and then, perhaps some light green laning aside from using your truck as your commuter, then the Stage1 spec has everything you need to keep you going for years to come.

It’ll even take mildly tuned motors that have a little extra poke over the standard!

POWERspec is the next stage up. This is ideal if you use your Land Rover as a workhorse. If you tow regularly or carry any extra weight like expedition trucks do then this is the spec for you.

It’ll handle highly tuned road monsters and hard worked off-roaders all day long.

If you want reliability paired with drivability from your mapped motor the POWERspec will keep you moving forward! This also includes the HD EXTREMEspec bearing.

LOF’s EXTREMEspec are the ultimate in Land Rover Clutches! This work of art will take everything you can throw at it. From big power to harsh conditions. Whether you’ve got a highly powerful working motor or an all-out race build, the EXTREMEspec will take on anything you put in front of it.

Don’t be mistaken though, you’ll still have real drivability too. No bad behaviour, just tough, unbeatable strength and reliability!

GREAT BRITISH LAND ROVER SHOW A Rarebit of Paradise

H

ead into deepest Wales and if you look hard enough, you’ll find a place that provides the ideal oasis for a Welsh laning vacation.

Llanerchindda Farm is a serene bed and breakfast, perched upon the Carmarthenshire hillside, and has become a popular spot for Land Rover fans seeking green lane adventures in Mid Wales.

Run by Martin and Lynne Hadley, with the help of sons Mark and Andrew, the Hadley’s successfully ran a hotel in the Lake District prior to their transition into Wales, and their welcoming hospitality is plain to see – and taste!

Staying for a night or two should give you ample opportunity to sample Lynne and Mark’s culinary expertise. The other half of the team are Martin and Andrew, who together oversee the front of house and as with all of the Hadleys, aim to make your stay as memorable as possible.

On the laning front, annotated maps,

sat-navs or even a local to guide you on your way, are readily available throughout your visit. The Hadleys know their stuff as well, being avid supporters of GLASS and Treadlightly.

With an abundance of local lanes enough to keep you coming back again, it’s good to know Llanerchindda have plenty of accommodation options for when you finally have to stop for the day. One of the favoured choices should be the on-site cottage which is perfect for anyone planning a group green laning holiday to the area.

Soar y Mynydd and Strata Florida are just a couple of byway delights to be found in the area, however, on a second visit you can dabble in the dozens of less-trodden trails that accompany the stunning countryside.

Ultimately, this is what everyone is looking for from their green laning adventures – a unique experience with memories to treasure for a long, long time. And few places do it better than at Llanerchindda Farm.
