Hi all, go easy on me.
I'm not an owner yet but I'm planning currently in the research phase of a mega trip with the misses which will entail driving from the Uk to either India, Mongolia or even Tokyo. Still trying to decide as we have a few countries to visit in various trips before we do this one lol. I do own a Nissan 4x4 but it's quite a bit different lol. Cheeky R35 GT-R which I've owned for 3 years thus far and loving it.
I'm a proper petrolhead through and through and love travelling. The misses isn't fussed by cars but her real passion is travelling. So in the past we have mixed the two together which has equated to some epic trips. As stated I don't have a 4x4 yet but we have driven many on various trips over the past 10 years. Drove 1.5k in Ethiopia, did the length of Oman (man I love sand dunes!!), Alaska and a few more. So I'm no stranger to hiring and driving a 4x4. In Oman we had a 2011 land cruiser and for Ethiopia it was a y61 patrol.
We are at the early stages of planning but I'm keen to set my sights on what vehicle to get so I can start researching the prep needed. Not going mad and will properly do some of it myself to save cash. Anyway a friend owns a '90s patrol and I seem to have set my sights on a y61.
So I've joined your forum today with a view to gaining knowledge and insight from all your experiences. Gain so much from the GTR forum and know these are the best places to learn.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and hopefully I'll be an active member soon ; )
