That is gorgeous.
I didn't know you could get them in leafer varieties, I would
hazard a guess that he must have built the series body himself.
I will include a photo of my gay variety for those of you who
are interested, but rest assured now I have seen what is
possible I will be aiming to be absolved from my sins with a
leafer.

Be warned anyone intrigued enough to delve into the RC Land
Rover world, it is (surprise surprise) a money pit!
Honestly a new pinion and crown wheel for a diff can cost more
than you would buy a new full size diff for.
I built mine on an axial scx10 chassis and running gear so it
has a proper ladder frame chassis, drive is via proper prop
shafts, diff and half shafts.
C/V joints on the front as they give a better turning circle
than the normal mock UJs that it came in the kit (it needed the
full garden to turn round!)
It comes as standard with locked diffs but the front has been
replaced with a true miniature open diff and I will be doing the
rear asap.
Different ratio diffs are available.
Great fun! Anyone else got any pictures of a scale Landy to put
up?

And now I finish watching the video, I see he did indeed build
it himself!
