I think I've seen it, or one very similar. He crawled around an oval at walking pace for about 5 minutes, got overtaken by a Series 1, then put it back on his display patch. It doesn't have the room to flex much by the looks, and the drive shafts and axles looked standard spec to me.

As the saying goes, all show, no go.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

I'm pretty sure this is the Discovery I've seen before. I've have a poke through the guy's videos. He's got a Discovery 3 jacked up on big wheels too. No room to flex, axles like twiglets compared to the wheels. He has a couple of mudding clips, but it's nothing a phenomenal.

They are joking right? It's an old discovery with big tyres, portal axles, a big body lift and that's about as special as it gets.
