Hi guys,
I’ve been a member of the Discovery 3, G4 Challange and 101 Forward Control forums for a few years so really appreciate the value of them.
I’ve owned my Land Rover Discovery 3 G4 Challange for about 3 years now and added a 101 Forward Control early last year.
The game plan was to convert the 101 into a camper and then go off exploring interesting parts of the world.
However, the realisation has just set in that it’s not big enough to live in for several months and parts can only be obtained by air freighting them from the UK.
Much research has drawn me to the conclusion that a Unimog (probably U1300L) is likely to be a far better bet, both in terms of space, reliability and parts availability. It certainly appears to be the vehicle of choice for most German overlanders.
So - early days, as I need to shift the Land Rovers before I have room for a Unimog, but thought i’d Introduce myself rather than just reading everyone’s posts from the sidelines...
Dan.
