Overlander 4x4 Magazine - August 2021

In this issue

Wales is never less than a magical place to go for a green lane run. And when it’s your first visit since lockdown, it’s more magical than ever.
We headed for Powys this month to set out a roadbook that includes several iconic rights of way. Black Yatt, Giant’s Grave, Lower Claerwen… it’s a classic. And it felt SO good to be out there again. If you’re yet to head across the border since the restrictions were lifted, let the August issue of 4x4 be your guide!
You’ll also find tales of two very different modified off-road machines in this issue. One is a Range Rover Classic that’s been rebuilt as its owner’s vision of what the old-school model would be if they designed it from scratch today. They other is a Jeep Wrangler specced up by a man who spends more time off-roading than almost anyone else in the country. Neither is extreme, but both are all the more fascinating for it.
This issues also contains a full test of the newly revised Toyota Landcruiser, and we’ve also driven an oddity in the shape of the Ford Transit Connect Active – basically, a panel van with SUV styling.
And we’ve got a travel story from a nation seldom visited by British overlanders. Mexico is the first stop for most US expeditions, for fairly obvious reasons, but it’s a little known destination for Brits. Our correspondents’ verdict? It’s a secret worth finding out. And you’ll find out all about it in the new issue of Britain’s only all-marques 4x4 magazine!
