  3. Polaris Overland

    New here

    Welcome to Overland Bound, whilst I can't answer your question regarding Jeeps we have travelled extensively in a SWB LR Defender 90. Organisation is key and putting things back where they belong. We travelled almost 3 years like this visiting the likes of Morocco and Mongolia. The good news...

    Overland Bound - Some Clarity

    There is a popular misconception that becoming a member of Overland Bound means you will get regular arranged meets and trips. This was never what Overland Bound was about. It was about giving people the tools and knowledge to safely head off overlanding. It was and still is first and foremost a...

    Let's see those rigs in action

    This is the Colonel lurking in a forest in Scotland. VW T5 Transporter 4 motion. We built it to replace our Defender for the Pan America Highway but Covid happened so plans are just being rejuvenated. In the meantime we explore Scotland and the U.K.

    EU - Overlanding Comms - Where to Start - Real World Experience.

    We’ve all heard the question "What Comms Is Best For My Overland Trip" and no doubt witnessed multiple answers all arguing over why their communication systems are better than the next persons often leaving the person who asked the question somewhat flummoxed and confused.

    Member Introductions *NEW MEMBERS INTRODUCE YOURSELF*

    Don’t make the mistake of thinking Overlanding is just 4wd off road travel. Having Overlanded extensively in a Land Rover Defender much of those travels could have been done in 2wd vehicles and we saw many people doing just that including a London Double decker bus doing the Mongol Rally. We...
