Footage from my mate's dash cam, following me through the ford at Bulford - during our Salisbury Plain green lane trip. Quality isn't brilliant but thought I'd share it anyway.

That looks great. Did you mudflaps effect ground clearance?

I don't have mud flaps fitted - deliberate choice as I figured they would reduce ground clearance & possibly get ripped off. Be interested to hear from someone who has green laned with mud flaps. 2020 Defender D200 110S Pangea Green

Oh yes, just looked in your gallery. I ordered some from powerful uk. I'm going to fit them soon as I think the make the car look lower. I haven't gone off roading yet, but I don't think that they should effect ground clearance too much.

Just looked in your gallery and noticed another FL2 with mudflaps, did they have any problems with ground clearance?

Ha Ha! You know, I never noticed! Well they didn't fall off otherwise he would have mentioned it

I'll have to ask him & report back. Incidentally, I have 65 profile tyres on 17" rims, lower profiles would have reduced ground clearance a bit. 2020 Defender D200 110S Pangea Green

Powerful uk do them for £45. They might help keep the Santorini black clean.

Thanks for the tip - just had a look on their site. Bit cheaper than LR  2020 Defender D200 110S Pangea Green

Slaneydore has powerful uk mudflaps, have a look in his gallery. I will post pics when I have fitted mine.

Yep, mudflaps are a complete waste in fords.
I had three riped off all at once and watched them float away  Another member of the failed FL2 clutch/DMF club, twice.

Mine stayed put, despite the aforementioned Mr Leg stood on the bank in stitches knowing what might happen next

My dads D2 had mudflaps and they never came off (as far as I can remember). I need to find some fords around Surrey.

Mr Taz was shaking with fear and drove Miss Daisy style.
He should have gone for it and ripped off mudflaps and wheelarch liners

That has historically been out of bounds as a public RoW. Is it now upgraded to a Permissive Byway?

Our group leader was using a route mapped out by the expert who worked out the navigation for us as an overall group, we were told he wouldn't let us go somewhere we shouldn't so I presume all was OK. There were plenty of others using the same route.

Just checked my map and my pencil scribbles say it is a PB...must have made a note last time out but didn't drive it..
Will do it in mid July in the Classic  * GONE. GS TD4 Manual MY2013. Orkney Grey with privacy, cold and clearview packs, armrests (a must!) and a spoiler.
