RUGGED SOLUTIONS ON SLIPPERY SLOPE !!!

Being interested in all things rugged, it was with great interest and anticipation that the Rugged Solutions team visited the launch for the new 2004 Land Rovers and had an excellent day out at Silverstone racecourse.

It is quite fitting that we attend this type of event as the rugged solutions range of products are built with the same eye for detail and considerations for the harsh environments that they will find themselves in as the Land Rover range are. Further more a great number of our clients use Land Rovers in their business activities so it in our interest to find out as much as we can about them, to provide the best service we can.

We are now looking at optimum ways (and locations) to mount our equipment into these vehicles and our mounting kits and brackets are flexible and sturdy enough to be fitted to a number of different vehicles and situations.

A great time was had on-road and off-road and the new Freelanders excelled themselves in the mud and deep water. Highlight of the day was the white knuckle rides on the rally cross circuit and it is impossible to believe just how fast a car can travel around a muddy circuit in the rain!

We would like to express our thanks to all the good folks at Land Rover for organising the event and in particular to Robert Furio - Regional Business Manager UK Sales and Graham Olley - Operations Manager.
