We go diving all around the UK and often end up heading down some remote winding track to get to the scuba dive site.

Having the CG lock fitted keeps us secure in our seats, stops us sliding around and means when we arrive we are in much better shape to go diving, even after a 5 or 6 hour journey.

Thanks once again."

Of course a chunk of that was on tarmac’ed roads but a lot was not - washed out wadis, rej, hamada (and the Hamada du Draa along which we vibrated is said to be the largest in the world) and just rocks, a landscape along the Algerian border of Morocco that often seemed to be from Mars or Saturn. This is the route, in places, of the Paris-Dakar Rally - cancelled this year because of terrorist attacks- so we took some of these stages at speed in our chipped 110 Defender TD5 hard-top.

ARB lockers, BF Goodrich A/Ts and Britpart heavy-duty (Cellular Dynamic) dampers outside, and CG-Lock and a roll-cage inside: we felt pretty secure and in control. Seats were Exmoor Trim with Outlast fabric but otherwise standard Defender design, and it was no hardship for those over 6 foot to be strapped tightly into them by the CG-Lock over long distances and warm, if not hot, conditions.

Navigation, video filming and radio work was made easier by not being strapped back into a full harness. Though we had fitted side bump pads over the top seat-belt mounts in case of rolling lurches we never actually needed them.

First I fitted the device into the 406 & hit the back roads late at night so as not to put anyone other than me at risk… I, the moon and stars were alone on this particular road in North Yorkshire (known well to motorcyclists for obvious reasons) I proceeded to throw the car around the corners harder than I would normally do (sticking strictly to the speed limits Oooof Course mmm) anyway true to the info given to me, my lower half did not move at all. So I headed for home through Helmsly, Hovingham, Malton Wetwang. Tibthorpe & Beverly by the way this is another really good road for a test, both from the side to side movement as well as being lifted from the seat and nutting the roof lining (I’m 6ft. 4ins. Tall).

So now I popped the gismo into the Disco & went of up a couple off my favourite off road routs, these cover most off the things we Landi owners love. 30 Degree cross slopes, steep up & down hill + the usual bumps and dents. If you had glued me to the seat it would not have been as good. These really could do people suffering flatulence the world of good though God only knows what would happen when they undid the belt (RPG comes to Mind).

Should you need me to abbreviate the above, “BLOODY MARVELOUS” should do nicely.
