We’ve had our 80 series Landcruiser for a couple of years now, and have done a lot of work to it. In return, we’ve had some truly amazing trips with it, and created memories that money can’t buy. Below are some of the places we’ve been in our 4WD. Where have you been? Where’s your next trip?

Good to hear Bonny. Owning a 4WD has given us a heap of extra places to see. You’ll have to get one!
