OK have another from the front then.

She made it home after 4 years. Still a lot of work to be done to complete her. We got scammed by materials theft, corner cutting, ineptitude and laziness by several companies in Ireland. So its been quite a tough journey, but 4 years after we started, we finally got her home from Ireland to...

One of the downsides of the vast majority of induction hobs is their low heat/simmering control Most just pulse on and off, meaning it can burn certain types of food that requires a constant low heat. Vollrath does not supply to the domestic market, they supply to the catering industry. Their...

Whenever we post a video, any video, we get complaints about having music, when we post any without music, we get complaints that there is no music. It is a difficult thing to try to cater to different personal preferences. With this video, our friend Stelian from Romania came over and we...

Engine was running for the first time today!

We were really lucky and ust got sponsored by Stihl today. They supplied us with two Stihl lithium saws. One for quick removal of little branches, small limbs that will scratch the life out of the vehicle, and the other for firewood and removing fallen trees blocking the route...

Some more updates for you all. The alternator and starter are both installed. Fitted the T304 Stainless full exhaust system with Sports silencer from Demand Engineering. Fitted the X-Eng X-DeFlex anti-roll bar. That means we have 4 times the torsional stiffness of a standard ARB, but are...

Those that have been following us closely will know that we have changed from the manual R380 gearbox to automatic. Being automatic means we cannot bump/push start the vehicle in the event of a flat battery or a broken starter. So we decided it would be a wise investment to replace both the...

Hi Jim! Nice to see you here. Did you see my post about the whisky you guys gave me? I've kept it sealed and I'm saving it for when we have our first trip out in the finished project as a celebration of where we came from and the "omg so looooong" journey to where it is now, and whenever it's...

Some photos of where we are with the bodywork now.

A little teaser for you all. The cab has been in the bodyshop and vapour blasted and a huge amount of work perfecting every detail to make it beautiful. It will, of course, be the originalMonza Red supplied by 68 Line Glasurit paint, but in this teaser video you get to see it right up to the...

For the last year I have been working away at our vehicle. Our Discovery, which we have been using to wild camp on beaches for the last few years was suffering from severe corrosion. So I decided to spend this following year reading forums, facebook groups and watch a billion hours of youtube...

We are building a project with our Land Rover, a true world first. Because of the delays due to Covid-19, we went out and bought one of these and a roof tent to tide us over for the next few months until our project is ready. The comfort of the XC70 compared to our Land Rover, it's insanely...
