4WD vs 2

I'm looking to buy a 4WD automatic petrol alphard campervan - mainly to camp out in woods up a sloping forest track. 2WD are far easier to find!

Does anyone have advice on how much difference 4WD makes in practice? 

Hi Francie.

 

We’ve had a 2007 3.0 AWD Alphie campervan for 3 years now and it’s been a delight.  The AWD has given us reassurance in visiting some offgrid areas in Snowdonia, Scotland and Northern Ireland but I think what’s most important is the type of tyres you have fitted. The AWD is not an off-roader and it’s the quality of tyre and tread that you have that will determine whether you get out of a muddy field (or up a sloping forest track) 👍
