I have recently purchased a Mazda CX5 for my wife wishing to have the best of both worlds ie good car to drive in the city with some off road capability.
I have upgraded the car to include Cooper All Terrain tyres slightly wider than standard and have upgraded the
suspension. It still has only 210mm clearance unladened. I will be taking the car on a 4wd course to assess its capability
Personally I have a good deal of experience driving on gravel and dirt roads.
We intend to tackle the GRR late July early August to minimise the river crossings and we wont be going off the main road for any distance. We will not be towing a van. The question is will the car be capable of handling the GRR if we drive to the conditions and with in the vehicles limitations.
Any comments would be welcome.
