Hi Chris,

Welcome to Overland Bound.

Your build plans sound like a nice project. Have fun with it. I look forward to seeing some pictures. Tdi, TD5 or Puma? Have myself a 110 SW Tdci with poptop roof and selfmade camping interior.

There are many OB members in the UK and also some trips and meetings organized by members there. Have a look at the Rally Points if you like.


Cheers, Bjoern

Russia is a great region for overlander. Wonderful, hospitable people, great landscapes, interesting places and moving history AND endless space - the country is just incredibly vast. I have traveled through Russia many times, through many regions of the country and two times all the way to the Pacific Ocean. If you have questions or need tips, get in touch! I am happy to help!

Wow sounds like a major adventure to get as far as the pacific ocean. I will have to pick your brains when it comes to it. Thanks again.

Hello everybody,
I have a Land Rover 110 CSW which I am currently converting to travel in. It is pretty stock apart from the add on of a winch and roof tent. No pictures as yet but will add some soon. I am based in Herefordshire, England.
Thanks
