Just arrived, so lets try and figure this new forum out... New generally means better, it just takes a little time to figure it all out...

Looks like a good trip, not bad for your first one either...

Ya perfect, I will try to track them down and see if they are up for it...

No problem Bob, I might be able to rally up a few more troops... Sur who knows :think: I am getting itchy feet here looking through all the pictures and just want to go for a spin somewhere...

:clap: :o :D HaHa Julian, your mouth is surely clean by now..... :whistle: but to be fair my SWB has been a super machine up until now and as they say, hind sight is a great thing... Travelling myself would be grand too but the other half might have something to say about that.... :think...

Cheers Gary, I will look into that..

Ok, I am now coming to the reality check, that selling my LC means taking a ABSOLUTELY MASSIVE hit on what I paid for it first day. Would it be a completely insane idea to take it for my trip or would a LWB be a lot more practical... Are roof tents for the SWB easy to come by and will storage...

I am just wondering if there are any Irish LC owners interested in heading over to Lincomb for the Oct weekend. We can travel in convoy or travel together to save costs. It would be a great way of putting faces to names and meeting people. I would be definitely be interested in taking my LC...

Hi Mike, They will all be easy, except China. Have you found the web site called HUBB ? Any way, --China-- can be done, but could swallow the same costs as all the other countries put together,,,,,and some. Gra. I just found it literally 10 minutes ago, everything seems easy enough except...

Ya I found a web site about 3 Irish guys who drove a BMW 316i to Sydney and they said China was a nightmare for getting paperwork sorted for them and the car. I can only travel it with a specific tour guide who must be with me at all times and they sort out hotels and your route and...

Cheers Andrew I will check that out as soon as I can The costs are looking a bit scary alright but its a once in a lifetime opportunity for me so I say why not :thumbup:

Ya they are my thoughts too so I am kind off back in favour of the 120 again. Even though alot of my journey will be tarmac, I know anywhere along the way if I see a off road track or cross country route, I know I will instantly take it. I am just that kind of guy who likes to explore what I...

Oh this is my current LC

Ya it may be possible alright Graham but for such a long distance a LWB would be much more suitable for storage and passenger space, etc...

I have had this since it was fresh out of the box, It has served me well and I still smile every time I drive it :thumbup: But she is now up for sale because she is not practical for my road trip from Ireland to New Zealand. It will be a sad sad day when I sell it....... :cry: Trying...

Thanks Phil, I would really appreciate that. I spent the last few hours looking up the North and didn't find anything that jumped out at me.. But if I see anything I will let you know. Thanks

Thanks for all the advise, I emailed him for his contact details to get more info on it. this forum is great for information. Well spotted on the roll cage Paul. I really appreciate everyones help. If anybody knows any good LC 80 for sale just send me a link. I am constantly checking the...

Cheers Bob, Good to hear from you. Are there many Irish members here?? Any Irish meets planned? Its hard to get across the water but hopefully I will soon.. Ya, I am still trying to figure out all the aspects of this site. I am learning alot from everybody here. There is alot of planning and...

Hi there, I am planning a trip for Janruary next year where I drive from Ireland all the ways to New Zealand. I am a proud 2008 Landcruiser owner already so I know how good they are. I have it from new but as it is swb commercial it is not practical for the trip. I have been researching the...
