Two amazing days in Langebaan with our friends Monja and Gustav before crossing the land border into NAMIBIA.
Join us as we travel the world overland, exploring the cultures and traditions of all the countries we visit.
In our Land Rover Defender camper which is our full time home we will take you rock climbing, hiking and exploring across all the continents on this planet.

Goodbye from RSA and a very HELLO from Namibia, one of Africa's best for sights and travelling. Crossed that same border with my son early December 2023 - we did a trip into the Namib. You will enjoy Namibia immensely depending on the time you are going to spend there !!! Enjoy and my best.

Oh my word! My dad had the exact same car - which he inherited from his father-in-law. Damn, man, and he use to open and close the door just like that and say "just hear this door close!"

My family also had one similar when I growing up. Compared to closing a, Defender door it's a dream to close that Mercedes door 😂 I'm sure the door seals are still good as well 😜

I’d hazard a guess that most of the parts on that defender were not made in England. It’s been fun watching it’s evolution. When the Land Rovers used to roll off British production lines they were very accurate and well made, most of the myth comes from what was done to them after, by back yard mechanics.

@AJB1 2 ай бұрын

@@garyetheridge7497 Don't get me wrong, I love Land Rovers. Learnt to drive in a knackered old Series 3. Probably back in the days of Series 2s they were accurate and well made, but I think quality gradually dropped from then on. I've never heard anyone say that a British built Land Rover was accurate and well made before, especially for later models.

@garyetheridge7497 2 ай бұрын

@AJB1 Agree, like all good quality things, eventually the companies try to save money and cut corners. I was impressed with the work done on their Landy in SA, the body work and metal smithing was brilliant. I’ve spent the best pet of five years restoring a Series IIA that was driven from Washington State down to Cape Horn Argentina. Some of the old parts are still in great condition and also made to be restored. We could learn a lot from that mentality in a consumption minded world of today.
