The Bedford Boys Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I don't believe you. Landrovers get overtaken. They don't overtake. You have managed to reverse the mere fabric of the universe.:shocking: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fesm_ndt Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 the other vehicle could have been parked or the other vehicle could of been reversing. mind you you can increase a Land Rovers speed by applying the following formula: [ATTACH]21069[/ATTACH] where: Vt = terminal velocity, m = mass of the falling object, g = acceleration due to gravity, Cd = drag coefficient, ρ = density of the fluid through which the object is falling, and A = projected area of the object (object being a Land Rover).

antarmike Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 A you sure it was a white van, and not a milk float? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpltomo Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 yea landys are faster in the cold weather even mine flys. Its all to do with the nice cold air going into the turbo and giving it more power. Oh and lack of spinning wheels helps.:-D Make the most of it come the sun shine it will be slow again:cry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bedford Boys Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Wha wha whats a turbo? :??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 A turbo is a spinny thingy , it adds another weird noise to the Land Rover reportoire. though it does burn up the oil that normally drips out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antarmike Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 With my 80", in cold weather it spluttered to a halt regularly. Looking into the Carb you saw a big ring of ice on the emulsion tube, choking the Carb. break that away, but the hose back on and you might get another 5 miles before it iced up again.... Oh the wonders of a Land-Rover! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony B Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Land Rover's are built for those who have the lesiure time to enjoy travel. Eventually you get there. Gives you a chance to enjoy the view of the a** end of all those speed merchants sticking out of ditches.:angel: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
