Best intro to a video I have seen in a long while.

Hello from the south of Yorkshire

[@richschwartz8004]

What an amazing piece of machinery. That's one lucky guy to have it and the fact that he doesn't treat as some beauty queen but actually uses it. Thank you both for sharing this awesome vehicle. God bless and stay safe.

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

Thank you very much!

[@yorkshirepudlian]

This has got my pinzgauer juices flowing , good informative vid Rich Thankyou ! 👍👍

[@GrandadBaz]

Dale at Haflinger Tech is definitely the man to speak to regarding Pinzgauers or Haflingers. I drool every time I go there.

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

It’s like a cathedral of Pinzgauers his place isn’t it 😂

[@Millennium-Motorsport]

Great video and a different class of machine, fits in between a land rover and a unimog. Used to see them regularly years ago, James Jones & sons was the dealer for them in Central Scotland and they were based about half a mile from my house in the 90's.👌

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

If you put a Unimog through at hot wash, you get a Pinzgauer 😂

I drove these while attached to 16CSMR... the best off road vehicle I've ever driven.

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

Awesome bits of kit arnt they!

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

good vid thanks lee

[@gowervannika_van3714]

We were parked next to this at the Old Point House in West Wales in the summer, and I took some photos of our van next to it cos I'd never seen one before. It's even more impressive in the flesh. Great to see it in action, great video 👍🏼

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

That's awesome! Thank you very much! We would love to see the pics you took if you want to share them with us via Instagram or email?

[@dustymiller7758]

Great vid Rich, that is one awesome vehicle. More than a slight resemblance to a 101 but far superior.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

I’m amazed Iv not baited anyone into that one yet. 😂

[@ronaldhesse4992]

the defender is the shit a pinzgauer roll over

[@VintageWanderer]

Had a 1973 710 pinzgauer back in 1999. Great vehicle 😊

[@dieselbushcraft1299]

Fantastic

[@mitsi_overland_adventures2691]

That’s some machine that 😍

[@forwardprogressonly]

what engine is in it? It be cool to extend roof up and behind rear seats wider base then put a 180 window set up at rear for view so basically you in a larger camper base light and strong and get a log burnerlol. so you basically max out the ultimate overland larger rear camper space with view

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

We have plans for a 6x6. 😈 give me 12 months to build it and you might be impressed 🔥

[@ianwatson3315]

Looks like that quarry near Peterborough..Vince cobleys

[@JOEFROMSHINEROW]

i seen a Pinzgauer 718 6x6 Box Body on the net. only if i had the cash. one day one day

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

If you think the 4x4 is the ultimate off road vehicle, the 6x6 is a whole other level!

[@danmcelroy6584]

Awesome! I want to get one of the gas pnes now o want one evwn more. ✌️

Projecta, redarc, enerdrive and others have been doing 24 to 12 dc chargers for years. Solar input too. Cool rig though.👍

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

Unfortunately not easily available in the UK we have found. If you have any links to those brands for the UK however we would love to check them out. We've had Redarc but not projecta and enerdrive 👍

[@VeteransInAction]

Great vehicle and great to see you supporting @veteransinaction

[@stephenbland7461]

A truly awesome vehicle, but with such a high price tag, even for the ordinary ones, they will be out of reach. Unless I win the lottery. And yes, I am jealous. If only I could get portal axels for my 101…..

[@largemarge1603]

I allow the commercials to run while I read the comments. I hope this helps!

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Appreciate it. Main thing is the comment and like. Thanks.

[@leearnold2832]

very nice

[@ronaldhesse4992]

after a pinzgauer it comes only a tank

[@PortugalCarp]

You should look at something like an Anytone AT-6666 HF/CB radio Liam, it'll give you 10m, 40 Ch CB, USB and LSB.

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

That's awesome thank you!

[@prepcooksurvive5807]

Couldn’t brake one had a good go tho. Thank you for the pinz tour, nice location did you rent that 😮

[@TimBarnett-pl9kd]

I visted couple with touchest Mercedes camper van made from german military rig! They were from Germany travelling too Washington State then down to cobo. I saw them again on their way back to Washington State, across Canada back to getmany! They had a great looking, strong, RV f om German military, xheck them out!

[@wjrphoto4093]

Surely the victron Orion is overheating as it’s boxed in with the inverter, needs airflow around it? Could be wrong just from what I can see on the video. Absolute machine though 👌

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

During the Africa trip there was no box around the unit and it still over heated. We have since added the box and fit the thermostatically controlled fans and it seems much better although we haven't had the same heat in the UK to be 100% sure. We now use Renogy as not only is is more "plug and play" it comes with built in fans 👍

[@chefearther7288]

How much is this car?? can you build another one just like this?? so cool.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

[@glennj6465]

iv hade cetek and now got renagy 👍🏻😜

[@pinzgauerbelgium]

Second in the world...what dous that mean, you can find these everywhere😂

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

Somebody didn't watch the videooo 😂 it's a Synergy mk1 variant, they made 6, only 2 are left. They did build a Synergy mk2 but they're all in Ukraine now so I'd say they'll probably never see a collectors hands unfortunately.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

😂 re watch the vid.

[@pinzgauerbelgium]

Its just a rebuild military pinzgauer 716 P90 MK ....a lefthand civilian 716k...now thats rare.

[@weaselsmeasles8727]

Great video but I think your interview techniques need fine tuning, instead of telling him what he’s going to tell us, I think it’d be better if you asked what he’s done

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

Liam here ✋ I'll take the hit for this, I purposely asked Rich to point me in the right direction through the video, this was very much his bag and not mine the whole KZbin stuff

[@78a67h]

The more you modify it adding bells and whistles the more you detract.

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

Thank god I prefer practicality and functionality

[@zootlynch359]

I've had nothing but problems with the renogy equipment I've used, never again! 2x lifepo4 batteries died and a dcdc mppt not charging via alternator.

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

I would look into a route cause of these issues. To have 2x batteries and a DCDC charger fail is extremely uncommon, hope this helps 👍

[@zootlynch359]

@TheAdamsOverlandCompany the dcdc with mppt has stopped charging via alternator even though there is 13.3v at the ign plug on the charger, it's showing 0v on dc home. Having experience of renogy customer service before when my lithium died I'm not even going to try contacting them. Ide rather pay the money and buy a different brand. The worst customer service I've ever experienced honestly.

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

@@zootlynch359 it is possible your DCDC charger has detected a spurious power surge and has turned off to protect itself, (like throwing an engine management code, there's a few reasons it may turn off) this usually can happen however if it's had a power cut from the starter. Try disconnecting all cables from the DCDC charger for 10 minutes and then reconnect. It's something I've never personally come across however I have read about it maybe a year or so ago, and this did completely cure the problem. 👍 It's worth a shot

[@zootlynch359]

Ok thanks, ill give it a go. the lithium batteries died a while ago and is a completely separate issue. I have however got the victron bits on order to replace. Thanks again, if renogy had customer service like you it would make things alot better.

[@zootlynch359]

Where are you based? Maybe I could sent you the charger to pick apart and find out for yourself? You can also have one of the dead batteries

[@simonburnby1997]

You reckon your DCDC charger over heats …….because you mounted it countersunk in a carpeted enclosure ???

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

It over heated before it was encased, its now encased and has thermostatically controlled fans to keep it cool. It now performs much better. I feel my point still stands however as other brands do not over heat encased or not.

[@colinfletcher7629]

Wading depth? This thing actually swims assuming he not holed the cab below the float line.

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

Not all were built for swimming, only a small number for the marines were built to swim. Which is unfortunate as we would happily take it across the channel 😂

[@richtea7868]

What’s the differences between a Synergy and a normal variant? I am not sure if this was explained? Sorry if I missed it

[@TheAdamsOverlandCompany]

Not that much in all honesty, a different body, 5 speed manual instead of a 4 speed auto gearbox, suspension was raised and even more heavy duty (from the 6x6 variant) air-con, a snorkel which it wouldn't have originally had, carpeted front cab, some weird box section on the rear bumperettes, and a crude 240v system. Oh and Whitehall's number written on the inside of the rear door!

[@richtea7868]

@@TheAdamsOverlandCompany thanks for the answer. I know how competent and sort after the ordinary ones are so I would imagine these are pretty special. What were they used for? Is there a story for the phone number?
