| Thought it would be interesting to see sort of mix of vehicles people have on here.
My overland drive (and greenlaner, general drive, etc) is a 1963 SWB Land Rover 2.25 Petrol. My mums/stepdads overland drive is a 1987 Range Rover V8 which is now quite a beast.
My other drives: Celica GT4 ST205, Mazda 323BF Turbo, Suzuki SJ413, Astra MK2 Sri. None of which are standard, I can't seem to stop myself from tinkering! _________________  www.rustyrhinos.comIt is not often that you will find yourself driving a car, being offered a digestive biscuit and hesitatingly ask "Does it have any sand in it?".

| What with the roof-rack, that's a double tropical roof!  Great invention those, the only vehicle I've even seen one on as it happens. Know of another vehicle other than Land Rover that has 'em? |

| Our faithful old bus is our Td5 D2. This pic is during our sponsored Landy Rally '09 event.  This was in the recent snow at Bere Regis , Dorset.  She's itching to get overlanding again this year. We are hopeful of putting a previously cancelled (2010) Moroccan Overland into effect this year.  |

| Mmmm, white motors aren't the best for that. Surprised the number plate's still intact, they tend to get wrecked down there. |
