    Damn, damn and triple damn...😫

    Every time. It happens every time!!!

    I put on the Les Hiddins explorer series DVDs, and I am racked with guilt that I have been wasting every day that I am not driving, and touring this great country in, my county.

    I must get a move on before I get too old!!
    The Isuzu 110. Solid and as dependable as a rock, coming soon with auto box😊
    The Range Rover L322 4.4.TTDV8 ....probably won't bother with the remap..😈

    Don't move too quickly on this idea Justin, I'm bringing my Defender in for service in the next week or two.

    Then you're allowed to go but only temporarily !!

    Cheers,

    Peter.

    Plenty of people are out there doing it, some long-term, others for specific periods. It's not impossible, it just requires planning.

    I think I have watched too many WW1 & 2 documentaries & seen millions of explosions to think my td5 - or any previous vehicles I've owned would validate a negative comment.

    To add to the thread, Justin, I'm in my late 60's now & have done more 4x4 trips in the last 5 years than the previous 45- it's never too late-

    Nothing beats watching an episode from the bush tucker man serious. It's a great way to seek inspiration to drop what you are doing and go for a drive to explore this great country. Well, maybe it's a bit wet up my way.

    when you consider the "environmental impact" of ANY new car's manufacture, my TD5 and 300TDi are actually both quite green.

    Thanks for that, I'm 66 and am hoping to get out there once again after years. Especially now that my mad keen son is back in the state and out of the Army.

    I must admit the it was the bush tucker man programmes that I was watching while I was in England in Winter 1993-94 that gave me the inspiration to
    buy a Land Rover, ship it to Australia and going for a bit of a drive around in Australian in winter 1994.

    Imagine my surprise when coming back from the dunny at Renner Springs and there is Les Hiddens talking to my wife about the Land Rover.

    Les had just been given a TDI discovery auto to go for a bit of a drive in.

    I too have wondered where the last 25 years have gone.
