  1. Thanks all for the points raised. Yes indeed braking my biggest concern. Fresh batteries will not be a problem so following up servo pump suggestion. I've been discussing a bar vs rope with local accomplice and we went for a rope due to the very tight corners and places where you really need to get the tow car out of the way... I'm thinking that a 4x4 (or tractor) no 3 bringing up the rear is indeed the safest bet if any doubts about brakes onboard....
  2. Hi I have found a '98 110 defender with a dead engine and bought it for my next project - the problem is its in the middle of nowhere in the French alps. I need to shift it about 100km but the first 20 or so are v steep over a big pass with lots of tight hairpins - up and down. All the steep stuff is paved. Tow truck/trailer v expensive and difficult anyway because of narrow bridges so plan is to use a longish towrope and take it v v easy. Tow vehicle is a RR V8 so got the gas for it. Brakes and steering seem serviceable, have fluid etc. Any tips/warnings please? done plenty of tows before but not like this - will test of course. Thanks Adam
