Offroad-Express

Picked this thing up today, got it sight un seen and extremely cheap. Bloody stoked with it, has been really well set up


This truck has come from the UK and I noticed that when I got it home some of the paint is coming off and the truck is the camel trophy yellow underneath it

Has arb lockers, Warn high mount winch, Terra trip computer,diesel powered in cab heater, on board air, stove, on board water supply, new Goodyear tires etc

also has full internal cage

Thats awesome

Vey very good score.

was an awesome buy, someone has spent the $$$ kitting it out.

Even had the iced coffee and cup thrown in ............

na the iced coffee was mine when I was trying to figure out where wires went

That is an awesome wagon. Im pretty jelouse of that set up. Run good?

Oh #### yea chard. This has made my day. I bet Sam's your best mate atm haha

Yeah it runs really well,good compression and blows very little smoke.the biggest thing will be going through the wiring in it,has afew gremlins...I got this truck of a wrecker, they were going to crush it but then decided it might be worth something....and tu's me n Sam are tight

X2 I know it's a LR but still...

A fella brought it over from the UK to tourer round NZ, then left it here and went back home.
The truck is abit of a mystery, it seems like its a really good copy of a camel trophy truck with afew extras thrown in. Has a diesel powered heating system, all the bash guards, roof rack, internal cage, snorkel, up graded shock towers, navagation system and was made in 1990 and was the yellow colour that someone has painted British green..

well done, too good to crush, even for parts

Hey yes sandhlow and it has the blue colour interior.Also has 4 steel crip plates to put under the wheels if you get stuck.

Hey yes sandglow

The factory sticker says sandglow?

I can't find the sticker . I found one when you open the bonnet but where it says paint colour it's blank...some of the details off the tag say 01702T and SALLJGBF7GA448798 not sure if these details mean anything to anyone?

Very cool rig...http://www.cameltrophy.co.uk/vehicles.htm
Bit of interesting reading, wonder if yours is a ex camel trophy truck...

Cheers for the link, gonna have a read shortly.inside all the door jams and inside the front guards is the yellow colour to

could be the real deal!

either way this thing is the find of the year! how much did you pick it upfor if you don't mind me asking?

It's a very kool piece of gear and I'm bloody glad they had more sense than put it through the crusher....nice guys to deal with tho....only paid 3k for it

3k you have to be shitting me. What a buy!

sheeeeeiiiiittttttt!!!! someone lost a LOT of money. Bet the guy you bought it off (scrappy?) made a pretty penny too. well worth it whichever way you slice it!
