  1. Hello all. Is there anyone out there with a Hannibal Rear Awning who can tell me how far out the awning extends from the rear of the roofrack. I have a side awning but am considering the rear one as well. However I have a disco 1 and want to work out exactly how much it will cover. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  2. Jason How did it go? Although it's a few years off, we are planning to go to Iceland in 2014 (Tunisia 2010, Morocco 2012). I would be very interested to find out how you worked the ferry times as the Uk-Denmark ones don't seem to 'fit' very well with the Denmark - Iceland sailings. has anyone else received a firm quote for shipping? Although it's cheaper to fly-drive we want to use our own vehicle as well. Ralph
  3. I've just had a quick scan of your Morocco blog . It would seem that we're not the only ones to have bad luck in that country. I look forward to settling down and reading it all. We saw plenty of bikes in Tunisia and you can get pretty far south and into the desert(Ksar Ghilane)by tarmac pretty easily and quickly. Once there, there are plenty of pistes across the desert and up to the mountains suitable for GS's. We also saw plenty of lighter weight bikes tackling the dunes although I wouldn't want to try this on a fully loaded 1150 I used to have a R1200GS and I know what it's like to have to pick it up (albeit greenlaning in the UK). Please feel free to steal as many ideas as you like (that's the point of sharing) and let me know how you get on. I'd love to see how you prep your disco. Ralph
  4. Just in case anyone is interested, we are now back from our trip. A full write up can be found here: http://overland-rovers.com/ralphs-pages/general/trips-a-journeys/322-tunisia-october-2010.html It was a fantastic experience and we are now counting down to Morocco in March 2012 ;D Not exactly the M25: Wild camping under a stunning sky: Fantastic sunsets: My advice to all is; if you get a chance.....GO, you won't regret it.
  5. I'm glad to provide a little inspiration If you need any more info, let me know.
  6. After an abortive trip to Morocco earlier this year, we are preparing for a trip to the Tunisian Sahara in October 2010. My car is fairly well prepared but we are making many more mods over the next few months. I have detailed some of these and I will be adding plenty more on my website (www.overland-rovers.com). You are welcome to comment and ask any questions. I shall make the articles as detailed as possible to show how things were fitted, where they came from, how they were made and how successful they were. In addition I will be running a 'countdown blog' until we leave on the 2nd October 2010 and then updating it remotely during the trip. Many of the ideas and mods have come from things I have seen on forums and other personal websites. This site is my way of giving something back to the online community. A few examples of the articles added so far: Fitting Range Rover Seats Equipment storage Rear door table Long range fuel tanks I will update this post as I add more. I hope you find it interesting Ralph
