They really are very good, most go for a pick up shell.
Some friends had one a while back and used to use it to layout competition trials, they had to stop though, because the trials where too difficult and the 90's and 88 inchers couldn't get round,
Although for serious competition nowadays a Range Rover chopped to 80" is the mosy common with a Series 1 shell. This is the most nimble with the best turing radius and Series 1's are also narrower. But they are often a little more unstable due to such a short wheel base.
Sadly the 101" 90 isn't permitted by the ALRC, nor are Bobtail Range Rovers and Discovery's. These can also be very capable and will often go where a 90 won't, but they still suffer the large front overhang, which a 101" 90 wouldn't.
