Land Rover's traveling around the world, sounded like a great TV show to me.  And it was. Highly recommended!

This is a 2 DVD set that covers the first season of the television show.    Read more »

Originally published in 1957, this book is an entertaining account of the first overland motorized trip from London to Singapore.  In 1955, five students from Cambridge and one from Oxford set out in two Land Rovers and made it all the way from London to Singapore.  One of the students, Tim Slessor, wrote the book and another, Antony Barrington Brown, did photography and filmwork for the book and a BBC production.

A very entertaining read - I could not recommend it more highly.  Best travel book of any kind I have ever read, and I have read many.  Read more »

The 1998 Camel Trophy was rather a departure from previous Camel Trophies.  For one, there was little emphasis on extreme four-wheel driving, and much emphasis on navigation and geolocation.  For two, the contestants each had two vehicles - a Land Rover Freelander, and a Defender 110 that followed behind packing the equipment.  Seems like a forerunner of the flavor of the G4 Challenge to come later than a real Camel Trophy event.   Read more »

Just a quick view showing that while it is not in the league with other Land Rover models, the Land Rover Freelander (here decked out as a G4 Challenge vehicle) can still give a pretty good showing of itself off-road.

This is a decent video from CARADVICE.com.au that reviews the Land Rover Freelander 2's off-road capabilities.

This is a rarely seen ten minute promotional film that was sent to customers of Land Rover in 1999 for the lanuch of the Discovery 2. It also includes exclusive footage of the "New Discovery Trek" -- an 18,900 mile round-the-world test drive.
