Scandinavian Arctic Prepared Land Rover Defender 90 2.4 TDCi XS, in excellent condition. Snow tyres. Dual battery spilt charging. Webasto park heater. Winch. LED lighting. Roof Rack.
Purchased in July 2014, prepared for Arctic challenges and departed in early December last year for 4 weeks. After seeking advice from many sources very experienced in Scandinavian touring we made very selected modifications, planning for the unexpected. These are listed below.
The reality was that we could have done this in a Volvo, the Landy never let us down and apart from from one self recovery from a snow bank and using the roof rack for taking pictures, we didn't need the talents of such a Land Rover. The roads even in the far north of Norway were kept pretty clear and we found the Northen lights from our door step or close by...no Aurora hunting up high or off the beaten track.
So now expecting a child and wanting another soon after the Landy is wasted with us and after 9 months communting or taking me to a cycle event, its sitting in the drive waiting for some adventure.
We now have the Volvo for our future adventures...
