• A Review of the New Defender

  

  I don’t envy the designers at Land Rover. Creating the new Defender must have been one of the most challenging jobs of the automotive world. The old models have been adored across the globe for decades, for their flaws as much as their off-road capabilities. Their designs were simple, rugged and instantly recognisable. The new […]

• Safari and Adventure in Classic Land Rovers

  

  For those that have followed this column for years, you will no doubt have picked up on the Fox family’s fondness for Land Rovers. In fact, I believe all of us have mentioned them, such as the escapades of “Mzee” the old Range Rover or the Defender that tried to take off John, my dad’s, […]

• Mzee: A Well-Travelled Range Rover

  

  My son, Jan, set me up for this story last week, when he wrote about his weekend safari with my older son, Andreas, up in the Aberdares. In his Going Places article, Jan mentioned how amused I was when Andreas asked me if he could borrow my old Range Rover, Mzee, for the trip – […]

• Weekend Camping in the Aberdares

  

  Many of you will be familiar with ‘Mzee’, our old 1976 Range Rover. Mzee has featured heavily in this column over the 30 or so years that it has been running, and his trips have tended to generate more interest from readers than your average Going Places article. We received lots of emails, in particular, […]

• The 4×4 Travel Guide to Eastern Africa

  

  ‘Most travel books,’ Maureen Day claims, ‘fail to mention the small, important details that can take the stress out of planning and eliminate the fear of the unknown.’ She is herself the author of a most unusual travel book: ‘4×4 Travel Guide Eastern Africa’. Maureen Day was born in Luanshya, Zambia, and educated in Rhodesia […]

• The Concours: Beautiful and Beastly Machines

  

  ‘This place is like Heaven,’ my older son said. Now, he is not usually given to that kind of enthusiasm and extravagance, so I took special note. Myself, I wouldn’t call the place Heaven – but it would rank close by. OK – we are talking about Schuhmacher’s 4×4 down Langata Road. Rainald Schuhmacher is […]
