We made it to Switzerland - Land Rover Defender Europe Road Trip (Part 1 of 8)

This summer we were lucky enough to head back over to mainland Europe for a month after spending the last two years in the UK. We both work full-time from home and all our trips are when we can take time off and this was our big one of 2021 so it was exciting to take the Landy further afield. We hope you enjoy watching ☺️

Hey Gary! Glad to hear you're enjoying the videos 😊 After Brexit the rules are a bit different, so the old fashioned pet passports don't work anymore...

Really good and inspiring. I've had my 110 (also keswick green!) since 2011, next year hoping to get a roof tent so I can go on longer and more wild trips. Do you think a full length rack is necessary or just a nice add-on? Just thinking for access to the tent. As I'll likely be travelling solo I don't really need the roof for storage. Was thinking of three roof bars and a side awning to sit under. Hopefully doing the NC500 in it next May. Keep up the good work 👍

@SomewhereWilder 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks! We got the full length rack just to make the most of the extra storage space up top - it's nice to not have loads of stuff packed in the back in case we need to sleep inside when it's too windy to sleep in the tent. You can mount the tent on just roof bars though so would be an easier and cheaper option if you definitely don't need the roof storage! Although always handy to keep a few extra spares and tools around 😅

@onetonlandrover 2 жыл бұрын

@@SomewhereWilder I guess it will depend on what racks are available, factoring in cost and weight, but I guess some sort of roof box might be useful.

where do you get your information on where to drive (allowed to drive), how to plan your route etc? looking to do the same next year but not really sure where to find the information since europe is pretty strict on everything.
