Couldn't get to Cape Town quick enough.

There is a nice one for sale, but it's based on an ex Fire Dokka - so the cab is longer, making the box shorter (too short for me). New project and it's green: www.projectoverland.info

we stoped off at the UniMog museum in Germany while having the pop top fitted to the 110 .. well worth the look around and normaly you get to go round the off-road course but the day we were there the venue was booked for the german unimog club outing ..

I wonder what would happen to the Unimog brand if we gave them McGovern....

I don't think MB would be daft enough to take him. Unless they wanted to build a hairdresser's special edition.

Went there with 3 other people who didn't even know what a Unimog was, and they were happy to spend a good few hours there. It's an interesting place, we only had to leave to make some distance towards our next stop ~ the Zeppelin museum.

Things like this happen when other people leave you in charge of the maps. Whistle

That, I believe, is Unimog no.1 .... ! so some one may have a few words about you having it !
The ā€˜ambulanceā€™ version was built for the ā€˜transformersā€™ film and has some great stickers on the back !

... But I still prefer my 110 ... Thumbs Up

The "Transformers" 'Mog reminds me very much of the Judge Dried 101" APs.

I like the verticality of the front and rear elevations and the way it's been reimagined to be relevant in the modern world...

...err, sorry guys, I seem to have posted on the wrong forum thread. Shocked

Bought it! Now we just need to decide on the spec. Im thinking Mercedes Obsidian Black with a black canvas back. Full roll over bars and bullbar with Spectre style rope. Think if a James Bond baddy had a Unimog! https://t.co/tNitErGPy8 https://twitter.com/ListerLawrence/status/...14816?s=20

She's back up for sale but with slightly less garish vinyl. 2.6m RA (approx Ā£125k+import tax and transportation from JBG). New project and it's green: www.projectoverland.info
