Congrats!! Just downloaded the whole series for my long flight home ❤

[@Anattiti100]

Wow! 24 hours of shlepping from flight to flight were much more FUN with these videos Andrew ❤ Thanks for sharing, worth every penny. Introduced you to some travelers too, hope they subscribe.

[@ozarkoverlandoutfitters9218]

This is super exciting. I’m in the USA and purchased. My first troopy from dubai and will be collecting it in Maryland in may and driving it home to Missouri in its first trip… I’m excited to watch this series

[@jaymoar3561]

You must be loaded! Congrats man!

[@erictyrrell3560]

Loved that you admired the troopy while ignoring that glossy Pretender in the foreground.

[@davidvanbreda9056]

There is just something particularly special when you do a build here at home...(Africa)! Can't wait to see it all! Welcome home...!

[@livingworkingoutsidebox]

😊 talk about a smile from ear to ear. Glad the bealt was fixable.

[@pieterbotha5432]

i love that warm fuzzy feeling a 1HZ gives you, that sound is amazing

[@roysethantsho2841]

The whistle is too epic, never grows old on a 1HZ!

[@daverhoden886]

I love you two! What a beautiful couple and example you set for an amazing and fun marriage. Thank you!

[@tiakontikiadventures1536]

Excitting times! Made up for you, any trip, is an adventure! Love Gwyn's highlights😂

[@henrygreen19]

Looking exceptionally good for a 500,000 km 4x4 I would say ! Take it easy and enjoy.

[@Indecisive7337]

Oh Andrew's expression, like a kid with a new toy! Brought down with a bump on learning that he has to share it, priceless.

[@Queensizemusic]

Congratulations Andrew and Gwen!

[@marvinshi]

[@HammerRocks]

Despite the high kms, it does look like it's been looked after. Congratulations.

[@79series]

Its even got that sweet 1hz exhaust whistle. Hope you can put some input on comparing all driving 1hz vs 1vd. Fuel eco etc

[@aylwinnetto4248]

Happy to hear you are back in Africa. That's where your very best videos are made. 😉

[@michaelguerin56]

Aah … the gently unsubtle threat from the missus as she reminds you that the Troopy is ‘ours’😁! Cheers from NZ🇳🇿.

[@anbu999]

Happy wife, happy life.

[@mikehogan9265]

As a South African living in Oz its really good to watch this and fun to hear the accents and the Afrikaans in the background. Looking forward to the build.

[@shaun8309]

Lekker Andrew. Hope to see you somewhere on the road when passing through PE.

[@dianek1220]

I love it. Looking forward to the trip. Regards John.

Looking forward to this build . Love your humour Gwen 😂

[@SC2Spectre]

Man, I'd love to have a 70-series Landcruiser in Norway. We only get the "fluffy" ones here. Like Prado 90, 120 and 150 modification.

[@lanceroark6386]

Mr. St Pierre White, I saw my first vehicle with portal axles in person yesterday while traveling through Tulsa, OK. It was a GWagon! I wish portal axles were more common out here.

[@bricekoirokpi9954]

I love this engine 1hz. The sound it produces... wonderful

[@NAStheNomad]

Congratulations Andrew, I absolutely love your videos. They are extremely inspiring 👍🏼

[@TerryCassar]

That’s great Andrew. Enjoy

[@cyclemoto8744]

thanks Andrew and Gwyn

[@deonnimb9505]

Happy homecoming, congrats, and there is that watch again

[@WaganTech]

Very nice!

[@markkuman4673]

Love your podcast man. Hi from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬

[@fatmanoverlanding]

Congratulations Andrew & Gwen. It all looks exciting. Do you know what that Troopy was used for prior to your ownership? Was it an ex-ambulance? Just curious on the rear seating setup. Gwen's comment "You know, they said that on Apollo 13 and we all know how that went" made me LOL. 😁

[@jasonhowe1697]

i would say so though some conversions i have looks more like a safari conversion of ambo chassis it is roughly 1.5 wider over all in the conversion within the rear cabin space..

[@guydebonnet6820]

1HZ, best engin ever!

[@Torrox4]

That looks like its in bloody good condition for 500,000 😎👌

[@brianchavwanga8734]

All the best in your journey with your spouse

[@bayselec]

I binged watched the Canning Trip, I think sometimes its better to spread it out. Going to do that this time. Looks good so far....

[@NathanKingOverland]

I love it! 👍👍👍

[@fionnbanks-gorton861]

This is awesome. Still makes my hz troopy look nice :(

[@craigdouglasmartens7037]

Hi Andrew, I love your work! So the burning question... If you had to, had to choose. Troopy or Rangie 2 door classic?

[@4xoverland]

Depends on the mission. For looking at and admiring, the Range Rover. For everything else, the Troopy.

[@kdjat]

Barely broken in, love me a troopy! :P

[@Phokoyamodimo]

And then you will be crossing into Botswana😂 good to see you back into the mother continent!

[@davidthomas9267]

Good luck in Africa.

[@ernestojrreyes8546]

Nice

[@jamieb741]

280'000 miles or 450'000 kilometres and it starts just like that... wow !! I'm impressed , I realise it's a Toyota but I'm still impressed.

[@4xoverland]

Don't be fooled. It's been well maintained. That is the difference. Not because it's a Toyota.

[@scottgenius9189]

That Troopie is just run in

[@tpope1492]

Andrew you really MUST involve Gwen more - she/ you both are very funny. I always enjoy your videos immensely.

[@NakuruMotorClub]

Do come to Kenya I daily a series 3 😊

[@Treetopflyer777]

Wonder if these could be imported to Canada. Love it!!!

[@soundmindtv2911]

Trying to find one of these in the Philippines. I expect I'll need to go completely through it myself once I do.

TOYOTA LANDCRUISER ❤👍🏻

[@AdriannTRPY]

Id love to compare this newer 1hz to my 95 model. Yes .5mil kms. Still a newer vehicle.

[@NikonFM2n]

For the love God Andrew, please tell me about that shirt. I'm going to visit Sydney and Uluru in a year and would love to wear it. It looks great on you mate.

[@4xoverland]

I do not know the brand but it was donated by a European company who wanted me to try it out. It looks good but is not comfortable. I chucked it after this trip.

[@NikonFM2n]

@@4xoverland Colombia-Sportswear has a similar type of shirt designed for fishing that I like wearing. It's called the "PFG Bahama ii longsleave shirt. I really appreciate the esthetic that field/utility shirts have, like the one you had on. Thanks for responding Andrew. Best Wishes to you and Gwynn.

A thousand mile journey begins with one step (if the motor will fire up)

[@colinross6259]

Geez, good interior for the ks. Mighty 1HZ, should be ok with that. V8s are nicer uphill.

[@JimmyMeatwhistle]

Looks good! Andrew, what year is it?

[@MrBaba1955]

I'm just curious here Andrew, what happened to your last blind purchased that you, Paul and Mr Snyman did up? You stored it in Pretoria / Namibia.

[@4xoverland]

You are missing so many videos!

[@MrBaba1955]

​@@4xoverland I have subscribed and enabled all notifications, so somehow they're not there or you moved them to you Web site. Still what happened to that cruiser that Kate and husband were going to use?

Hi Andrew, been trying to get hold of quick pitch for a couple of weeks but with no joy. Any inside??

looks like new.

1hz cool carnt realy beat them beauties slow but reliable go 4 miles them things if serviced correctly 👌 turboing the way to go but keep psi under 10 and safe 👍hopefully u will do an 80series one day there a better driving car would be a popular show and a very interesting project

[@NikonFM2n]

What shirt are you wearing Andrew? I like it

[@giterdunpete]

I have just replaced the 2 belts on my HDJ 79 because they were slipping.

[@MEU2k]

The 1hz will do another 500 never seen a 1hz troopy in the face lift model will you turbo the 1hz

[@4xoverland]

My first Troopy was a facelift with the 1HZ. I put a low pressure turbo in it. But not this one.

On today's episode: Andrew feels something warm and fuzzy, a blind man buys a Land Cruiser, and the paint on a Toyota is stoned.

How much? I just buy one 2003 ,300000 km for 28000 usd here in Laos They start hard to find in good shape

[@GregMcDavid]

Going to call you out in the "not a particular safe place to travel" statement.... South Africa has areas that are unsafe, like many other countries. But 99% is the country is just as safe as Australia. Blanket statements like that paint us in a bad light, and that's uncool.

[@adriang450]

I agree 100%. The bad press is spread a lot about people who haven’t lived here or move overseas and use it as a motivational factor for themselves as to why they don’t miss the country. There are definitely unsafe areas but that is the case in all countries around the world.

[@daneberryman]

@@adriang450 if you think south africa has the same level of safety of Australia your mad

[@BubblesTheCat1]

Nothing wrong with his statement. I'm South African, and have moved down to Cape Town from Gauteng, mostly because of safety reasons. Fair enough, Cape Town also has dangerous areas, but Gauteng is particularly bad.

[@caryknapton7233]

@@daneberryman He didn't say that he said South Africa is 99% is safe....having lived there for 10 years you know where to go and where not to go. I moved back to the UK in 2018 as the family is here, just come back from visiting for a month, I would have no problems going back.

[@adriang450]

@@daneberryman I would be mad to say that. However I didn’t, did I? Australia is definitely safer than South Africa as a whole. No doubt. I would be “mad” to say otherwise. All I was saying is that every country has its ‘unsafe’ places. Sure, South Africa has significantly more than Australia. That however doesn’t make it a dangerous place. More dangerous than Australia, yes. No doubt.

[@Javier-OverlandESP]

I’m sorry. Owfull sound.

[@4xoverland]

why are you sorry?

[@Javier-OverlandESP]

@@4xoverland Because I enjoy a lot all your vídeos. You are probably the only person who can talk for about 40 min keeping all my attention. And I don’t whant to be rude with my opinión. Is just that you will probably could improve your vídeos audio with a wireless MicroPhone clouse to your mouth instead of using the ambient micro of the camera. Just an advice with best Regards.
