We purchased this vehicle last March 15 from Xtreme Offroad in the Rep. of Ireland. It was the owner of the company's personal project he had built as his own daily driver/PR vehicle. The vehicle was in his ownership for a number of years before he built it and had actually never been off road.

Thus almost all conceivable Land Rover overland accessories and extras were added. I have included as many as my memory allows below.

March 15 the vehicle set-out on its first overland expedition from Rep. of Ireland to Mongolia. The vehicle completed the trip without any problems and this is where it is currently situated. It is due to be shipped before Christmas to return to Dublin (Rep of Ireland) approx mid February 16.

Basically this vehicle was built to a very high standard with no expense spared in time or finance.

Our own business, Craicncampers.ie , specialize in rental and customization of campervans & motorhomes. Thus we have quite a lot of knowledge on all things leisure vehicle related. We would love to see this vehicle go to a suitable home where it could set off on another adventure across the globe.

Please pm or email me any questions craicncampers@gmail.com

(Xtreme Off Road are also contactable regarding the bulid of the vehicle if necessary)

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
