Land Rover in the Dakar

Post by Harold »

Land Rover the best 4x4 by far?
Can’t find one LR in the list of participants; don’t think they can lay claim of been the best, not the by a long way.

In terms of number of entrants Toyota can lay claim to being the BEST 4x4 BY FAR!

Mini's? But a lot more Toyota's than Mini's or Peugeot - so by poplar choice of 4x4's, not only on the Dakar, it must be Toyota!
