There's plenty of 4x4 that aren't (pretendy) off-roaders. Mine is a Porsche.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation! -
And mine's got an electronically controlled centre diff and an LSD at the back, so whatever wheel is on the the ground will provide drive at all times, plus multi-selectable tiptronic and intelligent traction control.Originally posted by Lockhouse View PostMine's got 2wd\4wd high\4wd low plus a lockable diff switch for when you only have a couple of wheels on the ground.
Put it this way, a few months ago I towed a Toyota 4x4 off a muddy field where it had bogged down with all four wheels turning gently. Not long before that it was a Volvo XC90.
Yah boo....
