VIDEO LAND ROVER DEFENDER SCANDINAVIAN EXPEDITION PART 1
Hi everyone, this holiday we made a big big big trip 13.000 Km from Spain to Scandinavian countries : Sweden, Finland, Norway, and Russian border. We had a great time and enjoyed a lot all days, it was so hard, When we arrived home I was really weary, due the roof tent, haha that is just for a weekend not for 30 days sleeping there. We are thinking to camperise our defender. Anyway no pain no gain. I filmed a few videos and spent a lot of time editing them ,,, 6 days working, but finally I've got them and I'm so proud to show you all to you in this great forum and people too.

I hope you enjoy the first part: Cheers

POST DATE : if you are living in Germany, I'm afraid you can't watch it because youtube blocked it due the sound track of Bruce Springsteen. I hope for the rest of countries will be works, but on cell phones I'm not sure if not try on a laptop.

Just finished watching your tube, what an amazing trip you have been on, i can see why it took you 6 days to edit all the footage you have took and thats just the first part Shocked I love the the toy camel trophy defender on your dash as a reminder that you can go near enough anywhere Very Happy well thats what i think anyway, I wish i could meet up with you one day on the mountain, perhaps. I had a little journey myself, nothing compared to your travels, i covered about 2000 miles, as i was one of a load of land rover owners that did the Lands end to John o Groats drive here in the U K . The scenery in your tube was very different and awesome at times, all my best to you both, 1996 Golf Blue 300Tdi 110 Pick up.

Keeper.

Very well shot and edited a pure joy to watch. Looks like a brilliant trip.

I really shouldn't be allowed to watch videos like this as all I want to do now is go exploring. Look forward to the next installment. 1995 300 Tdi Epsom Green - It's a keeper.

Hi Clayton,,many thanks for your words. Perhaps we can meet up somewhere who knows I never been to England with our Land Rover we went with my van 4 years ago. Your holiday sounds good as well 2000 miles are a long trip.

Thanks again all my best.

Hi,, thank you . No we haven't got any issue , but we had two days non stop rain with a strong wind as well and I felt that my defender was running slow and I remembered a tip of my mechanic: to turn the top of the snorkel, because sometimes if the wind is so strong it could stop the air intake to the motor, once I did this the sintom dissapeared.

Hi Fabio Thanks I celebrate you liked . If you are thinking about going to Finland you will find long roads full of trees both sides with reindeers as well, drive carefully and so important bring with you a protection for mosquitos,, they are so big OMG seems helicopters. Findland is full of lakes we read they are aprox 64.000.

We tried to get in RUSSIA but we could not enter because we did not have a visa,

haha good luck with your intention to persuade your wife.

Cheers

Albert
