Bloody Mary has left for new adventures. 2 days before the Prado. Will take pictures when i get it :)

Looks good to me and i think you're right to put Mauritania in North Africa due to its culture whereas most of the people there are sub saharan.

Here we go. I found my new rig. A 2004 metallic grey Toyota KDJ 120, Automatic gearbox, first hand and every single invoice from day 1. For the money it is not the most beautiful one (hail impacts) but i think in the best mechanical condition i could find. And only 165K km whereas all others on...

I FOUND MY NEW RIG

Hey Patrick, welcome here :) i hope we can meet somewhere in Europe :)

Excellent :)

This sounds quite good Dave :) As this re-alignment occurs at the same time as the migration to a new forum platform, i don't understand why we still have 7 regions, claiming only 5. I know a discussion is happening in the southwest forum but you should (please) relocate it in the South Europe...

Hey @Lremoore i don't know if you are talking to me or to Mr E but the best way to discover those areas still is Vibraction roadbooks. They have many routes to choose from and you can mix some. Not working for them, i hope i can post their link here as they are really famous and everybody knows...

@MazeVX : i am also very happy to talk to lot of you guys, and i could "wake up" 70% of our french members which is awesome, and it enlightened the fact that the forum is not the best way to communicate on a daily basis. That's why i wanted the official OB FB page. Which is not showing up, but...

Correct. Sadly :) I think i've made up my choice at 98% (toyota land cruiser). But still give those 2% a chance to surprise me :sweatsmile:

I sold the my jeep. The new owner picks it up this saturday morning. Then i buy a new toy :)

Well, sort of a cold shower after a couple month here as i feel like a lot of things are happening but a lot of people from Europe do not communicate here and it's so sad : Today I saw an official OB post on instagram saying a mid europe member was planning a trip to morocco so i leave my...

Welcome Joseph!

Which V roadbook do you want to do btw ? And when ? Let's try to meet when you are in my area

We are actually planning the exact days and @viveen4wd (from Spain) is planning the route. Communication is kind of complicated as he is super busy at the moment but we are making progress. Sort of. Well i told you everything i know so far so... Yes, we still have some work to do :sweatsmile:

Sorry, won't be a Land Rover :cry: I had one (1972 serie) for many years and, as the Jeep Wrangler, the beast is iconic, inspiring, incredible, but now i really need to offer my kids and my wife some comfort on the road and reliability and i will buy... A Toyota. Do not punch me :tearsofjoy...

Hey @Mr E :) Living in west Pyrenees, in Biarritz. Please tell me where and when you'd like to plan your trip so at least i can try to help and of course do my best to meet you on the trails. Actually planning to go to the Monegros desert quite soon (well... My only problem is i sold my jeep...

Indeed :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:

That's it... It hurts to sell a car you fall in love with each time you look at it but... The plan is the plan... No Pajero, no... Looking for Toyota KDJ 120, Toyota HDJ 80, Toyota Hilux double cab, Isuzu Dmax, or eventually Nissan Patrol (which i like but also hate as here in France, Patrol...

Cool ! :) As said my OB project was to sell the almighty-except-on-the-road Wrangler to buy a new rig. Well, i created the ad this friday and the jeep got sold on saturday morning... Buyer will get his new toy next week end and i am then naked... Going for the next step of this two steps...
