Watch and enjoy as Mark Evans turns an old rust-bucket Range Rover rescued from the scrap-heap and transforms it into the ultimate boulder-crawling beauty! When complete, Mark reckons the vehicle will virtually be able to climb a vertical wall! The extreme 3.5 litre, V8 powered, R380 gearboxed off-roader, custom built from scratch by Mark, also boasts some serious off-road kit, including: an outrageous hi-lift suspension system; a hand-made, one-off roll-cage & a specially modified twin-tank fuel system.
