we really enjoyed the south west. first we visited the amazing beaches on the south coast, from esperance to albany. then we drove through the forests around denmark and walked among the massive tingles, jarrahs and karri trees. and last we spent time in the area between augusta and busselton and enjoyed the food and sights in…

so far i’ve been really reluctant to take the disco onto deep sand tracks. the car is pretty heavy to begin with but to make it a greater challenge the land rover engineers fitted the discovery 4 with huge brakes (great) which means only 19″ (and bigger) wheels will fit over them. instead of the…
