Re: Hello from North Wales

We're called The Bearded Dragons at the moment, welsh thing coming through ;) but we're going to have to chance it as I've found out there's already a team of that name who went this year. The teams for next year won't be listed yet I don't think

Re: Hello from North Wales

Thanks everyone, I've got some good news though; we'll be driving it back and keeping it :) it costs a mint to import cars over 10 years old into Mongolia so we're driving back through Russia, apparently it's a real direct route and only takes a week or so. Electronic ignition is a great idea, I use...

Re: Hello from North Wales

Yeah I think some gnarlier tyres would defo be a good shout.

A friend of mine suggested a hand winch the other day, what do you think? Saves spending on an electric winch and new bumper and saves a bit of weight I thought? We'll need a land anchor either way as we're crossing three deserts!

Re: Hello from North Wales

Thanks everyone, yes I think it's a bit of a once in a lifetime experience, I've worked long hours all my life so far, so haven't had the chance to do any travelling so this ticks a few boxes for me.

Honest opinions on the reliability of the 1 litre SJ engine for long distance trips?
