Mental & Sweet, Where would you go?

Around the world of course - although ex military vehicles are banned from entering some countries. MPG a bit off tho. How much cheaper is diesel in africa? Or say Mongolia ? I guess you could plot a route driven by fuel costs

you would`nt need to worry about costs. you could ram raid a bank in that.

Diesel 1p a litre.

Although you could probably afford to run a something even more interesting......

Petrol.....2p a litre!!

I had a friend with a expedition LR with twin 60 litre tanks (plus jerry's) who filled up everything when entering Iran for £1.50. Then filled up again before entering Pakistan.

i think that the pinz's have a flat 6 air cooled made by sdp,

neil

2.5 and 2.7 air cooled inline 4 or late vans had turbo diesel i belive.

there was nearly a meet up with the pinz and 303 guys last year but it didn`t come about. i`d love to meet up with these guys think both those vans are pretty special.

I would think just about anywhere.
Pretty cool that.

There might just be one or two "resting" in the lot behind the old factory in Guildford, must be worth a look

I think they were abandoned, possibly R & D vehicles as they were getting overgrown with brambles the last time I was there (several years ago). One was a red 6x6 bus with windows I recall, but spares might be a tad dear if they are incomplete?
