And another!

Hello all

I always thought it would be quite cool to drive through Africa and other countries but never thought that I would be at the stage I am at now, which is preparing for my 1st little expedition, okay, trip.

It was'nt even a consious decision either as I bought a LR D2 a couple of years ago because I needed the extra room, since then I have become a regular green laner/off-roader( I use the term off-roader loosely) and found myself taking an interest in overland travel, such that I almost have a fully preped vehicle!, okay maybe not fully preped but it's getting there, anyway I have the most important item, Chris Scott's book. Now, I know a D2 might not be the 1st choice for many but I am really focusing on preparing it properly in the electrical and mechanical department and obviously all the other usual things, so fingers crossed.

Have been reading this forum for a few days and it is excellent, pure passion in some of you.

Thanks for letting me in and hopefully I wont bore you pros with all my amature and naieve questions.

Later
Peter
