Mercedes 1625

This vehicle took us 30000 kms on our solo trip from the UK, Europe, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, China, Mongolia, Siberia, Europe and back to the UK.

It gave superb independence, reliability and security over the 6 month journey from April to September 2012 and was capable of covering long daily mileages in absolute comfort
