    Apparently it's in print again...

    IIRC - It's £40 here in the UK.

    Yeah, but the book itself is great. Will stir that feeling for adventure like nothing else.

    Ooooh - don't tell me that! I just parted with $170 to get it sent out from the States.

    Have you got a link or any details of the GBP40 supplier?

    The downloadeble stuff on the 'net is only a fraction of the original book's contents. I haven't heard about another new print apart from the link I sent you earlier.

    Same author but it seems to be a different book, mainly focused on the in and outs of the various types of 4WD's. I would be interested in tracking down one of the expedition guides as well. Loks like a good read.

    Yep - definitely a different book. It is also for sale on the US site for US$48.

    Well, if you have a closer look, they also offer the VDEG for £40 plus shipping, which turns out half the price compared with the US supplier. Bugger .
    The four-by-four driving book also comes as "The Land Rover Experience", about the same content, more focus on LR models, published by and available through LR (still, I hope).
    Cheers

    Better than the Amazon price of US$250, but still, half the price

    Oh well - you live and learn.
