Series Land Rovers and Defenders, don't need the same carbon offsets that you would need in the cars you supposedly used to offset your footprint. That is because the classic Land Rover shape vehicles last scores of years reducing the dust to dust cost. While the Jap things you took out for the day will likely be crushed within a decade and therefore have triple or more of the manufacture, shipping and recycling values in the dust to dust carbon cost.
The cost of fuels is minimal when compared with the carbon cost of mining, refining, manufacture, shipping and recycling it takes to manufacture and recycle a car.
