Just found your videos hidden in the Jeep directory. I've owned Nissans and Landrovers and currently a Mitsubishi. Why would I be looking at Jeep content? 46 years ago the Bairnsdale High School Bushwalking club did a day walk the reverse of your drive; down Bulltown Spur to the Crooked Rver...

The outback proves a bit tough for some of Germany's best off-road warriors. Mercedes-Benz has launched a rescue mission to one of the most remote sites in Australia after six of its military-style wagons broke down. Corrugations along one 70-kilometre stretch of the Canning Stock Route burst...

I've got 3 varations of these for use in the annex of our camper trailer, 2 about that size and one double the size for family meals. Ours are aluminium and the slats are held together by thin shock cord which is easily replaced. Will the plastic covering degrade with use or sunlight? Easy to...

Why all the stories and fear about ‘stranger danger’ when the greatest threat of child sexual or physical assault lies within your circle of friends or family. My daughter started travelling by suburban trains alone at 13 (and through some pretty tough suburbs) and I see a number of kids daily...

In our camper trailer we have both 1 cup and 4 cup coffee plungers. They are used as an alternative to making instant coffee; as quick and easy. They can also be used to make tea Some coffee aficionados consider that the best coffee with a plunger is to use expresso ground coffee as the smaller...

In Australia the date...

I agree with the last part of your statement; I’ve owned only one auto is 35 years of driving (a 300TDi Disco I). A manual gives far more control in most situations and is a hell of a lot more fun to drive! The Auto box does have some advantages though, especially in low speed crawling. It is...

10 months ago there were bushfires burning about 3 km from our place, so I was avidly tuned to the Government ‘disaster’ radio station listening for updates, when an item came through that a petrol station 8 km the other direction was ablaze. More information was broadcast that a car had gone up...

Any discussion about Land Rover heritage should pay homage to Len Beadell Len Beadell was a surveyor with the Australian Army who, in 1947, was given the task of surveying a road across the interior of Australia as part of the search for a suitable site for weapons testing (including the...

Call me old fashioned; but personally I prefer a small old fashioned leather wallet; can get wet, bashed about, burnt and the documents, receipts and money inside remain reasonably intact. Clean the junk out every 6 months or so; get a new one every 5 years or so. Small enough to fit inside a...
