Thanks for that, the more information the better for planning my trip. When are you going? If you're there in August then you never know, we might see you somewhere in the wilderness!Toyota 78 for us - link

The Landcruiser has had various bits sorted, it now has its new wheels and tyres and is pretty much ready to go. I'll post some pictures as soon as I get round to taking some.
First and only picture I have currently of the beast in question:
I've sorted a few niggles, changed the big end bearings, got the steelies and Cooper ST Maxx tyres (which are great) so it's pretty much ready to go. All three locking diffs work perfectly and it's in superb condition for it's age and mileage so I'm as confident as I'd be about anything that it'll handle whatever Iceland might throw at it and get me where I want to go!

It'll owe me about £4.5k by the time everything is taken into account, I got it for an exceptional price from a very interesting gentleman who seemed more worried that it went to a good home than how much money he got for it! I'll probably sell it again after the trip as I don't really need it otherwise and I shouldn't make a loss, maybe even a small profit.
Did you complete the trip to Iceland OK - looks mighty interesting to do that. I was looking in the forum to see what people have been using for such trips, and I can see that your intention was to sell the Landcruiser after doing it - if you still have it, I'd be interested to talk with you about it
