4x4 HOLIDAY DRIVING TIPS
Make a note of our top tips for making your road trip adventure fun, safe and hassle-free.
BRUSH UP ON YOUR OFF-ROADING SKILLS
Refresh your off-road driving skills using our handy guide and make the most of your vehicle’s capability over difficult terrain including mud, deep water and sand.
COVER YOURSELF
Good emergency cover is essential, especially if you’re heading off the tarmac. For driving abroad, most car insurance will allow up to 14 days, but check with your provider.
PREPARE YOUR SAT NAV
Using Sat Nav? Remember to update your navigation system with any maps you’ll need for your travel region. And just to be safe, keep a road atlas in the car too.
DRIVE LIKE A LOCAL
Driving abroad for your holiday? Did you know that in Germany, France and Spain, it’s illegal to drive in flip flops? Different countries have different rules, so familiarise yourself before you set off.
HOLIDAY WITH STYLE
From bespoke fender cladding and brushed stainless steel to high-grade carbon fibre enhancements. Travel in elegance with Land Rover’s premium style upgrades and enhance your driving experience.
FIRST CLASS TRAVEL
Leather seats you can sink into, miles of leg room and a light, spacious cabin: a Land Rover makes any 4x4 holiday feel like first class. Just imagine your next holiday and enjoy the driving experience with your Land Rover premium SUV.
HOLIDAYS WITH YOUR 4x4
Whatever your downtime, Land Rover makes it a breeze. Gather inspiration for your next 4x4 adventure with our holiday accessory checklists.
BEACH HOLIDAYS
Set off for the shore with surfboards on the roof and summer playlists at the ready. For towing your boat to the marina or touring the French Riviera, you can count on Land Rover.
WINTER HOLIDAYS
A Land Rover will carry you to blue runs or black runs, off-road to see the Northern Lights, or to the next village for a spot of sledging. All in one day if you like.
CARAVAN HOLIDAYS
Land Rover builds some of the most powerful 4x4s in the world, with most models comfortably pulling 3.5 tonnes. The Discovery is a three-time winner of Tow Car of the Year. So hitch up your home-from-home, strap the bikes to the back and head for the horizon.
CAMPING HOLIDAYS
River kayaking in the sun, supper round the campfire and counting stars from the hammock. Realise your Bear Grylls potential with a Land Rover and enjoy your next off-road experience.
OFF-ROAD HOLIDAYS
Up and under, through, over and beyond. With Land Rover’s legendary off-road capability you can tame any topography, and get to places other vehicles simply can’t.
