Hello Simon I just read through your blog and your pictures, stunning and well done sir, Amazing you had the balls to simply do it and go, I am still working up my courage to get started,but seeing what others have done helps. Cheers, Paulo

Gorgeous photography on your website, and looks like a great trip. I have a vehicle stationed in portugal, if you guys ever need another for a trip, hit me up and I can check my schedule to see if I can make it. Merci Paulo

I say ,drive what you can afford/know how to fix/can live with ect. There are likely no perfect choices, just your own choice. I put together a 1992 Hilux Surf with a 2.8L 4 cyl diesel (no turbo,this thing clatters so loudly that Toyota puts a second rocker cover with sound deadening to "try"...

Hey Niks, I remember these sorts of trip as well, but we were over here already in Canada, and my Dad would load up the 66 Galaxie or the 71 Impala with mom,dad, 2 kids and all the remaining Grandparents (always with a 2 door hardtop) jam the massive trunks with everything we would...

Hi There, Thats not quite correct, Quebec in its infinate wisdom decided that if a JDM vehicle is 25 or more years old, it can be out of province inspected (you can always own it if its only 15 years old, that is a Federal law, provincially the only thing they control is access to out of...

She was finally ready for her out of province inspection, I was quite sure I had prepared it well, but you never know, they test and inspect the vehicle the same if its 1 year old or 30, whats on the check list must be good. Last tire came in, I did a few miles and sent her off ! She passed...

2019/2020 was a very odd period in my life, My dad had a stroke,he was my partner at work and we did many things together in life and that had changed quite suddenly. Then along came covid, making life really hard for almost everyone worldwide,and as I worked in Aviation (I have an Instrument...

I dont know, perhaps your experiences were extreme,perhaps they were normal for there, I cant say. I know I am looking forward to going to Africa (Morocco and Mauritania) once this pandemic passes,I had hoped to make my way there this year,but Africa will be there next year as well. Everything...

Hi Guys A very quick update, looks like we will be offering a "weekender" version, it will be built on the passenger van . This will give you the ability to carry 5 people and sleep 4 , no interior furniture, but you will get the full sliding larger 3 seat/bed, as well as the pop top (with and...

Hi Everyone Full disclosure here, I (we) are making a Metris Camper for the North American market, we have partnered with Reimo in Germany and with much prodding have convinced them to develop a pop top full camper based on the Vito (Metris for us).We are also doing this with the blessing of...

Hello again So you figured about 40 G to the halfway point,with your Gas power plant,presently with Diesel Mercedes power you would probably have plenty with the 25 in the tank? Well let me know if and when you guys want to have another go. thanks Paulo

Absolutely great pics and adventure,if you guys are going again around the same time next year,please do let me know. If required I can tag along with a M101 trailer in order to carry the additional gas cans and extra's if you think it can pass through. How much fuel to do you think it would...

Hi Guys interesting thread,interesting view points? I am hoping to head to Baja sometime in 2012 with some other guys from the great white north,and it would be nice to have a few of the more interesting places pointed out to us,you see not everyone lives within a days drive of some of these...

insane.epic and without the proper words to describe the adventure this couple has shared, I wish you both the very best. Most (myself included) here can only dream of this sort of adventure not to mention a "spouse" that would share it with us. Paulo

Hi Guys Are you guys stalking me?:oops: For the last 2 weeks I have been reseaching and looking into everything and anything about the divide route in a 4WD. Seems most of the folks aware of the GDR will do in on a mountain bike,or a dual sport,but I dont know if anyone has done the entire...
