Overland Classifieds :: 1995 Land Rover Discovery I

The price of used Land Rovers can be eye-watering, with a good condition stock Defender 110 setting you back the best part of $50,000 in the U.S. Fortunately, the Discovery offers comparable classic charm, versatility, and capability but is a fraction of the price. I’ve featured several bargain adventure-ready examples, including this $6,400 2001 Series…

Overland Classifieds :: 1985 Volkswagen T3 Transporter Doka Syncro

As some of you already know, I’ve lived in my 1986 Volkswagen Syncro for the best part of a decade, and it’s been a faithful travel companion.

Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Toyota Tacoma with Four Wheel Camper Swift

Earlier this week, I interviewed Venja Travel about their Pan-American adventure in a Volkswagen DOKA (double-cab) Syncro camper. During our conversation, we agreed that a double-cab pickup and camper combo has to be one of the best and most versatile setups for travel. After all, the double-cab can be used as a commercial workhorse, daily…

The Full-Size Revolution continues with more overlanders than ever before transitioning from mid- to full-size trucks.

Furthermore, with more people committing to…

Overland Classifieds :: 2006 Porsche Cayenne Turbo

I recently discussed the often catastrophic depreciation of luxury 4WDs in reference to a 2015 Range Rover V8 Supercharged, which initially sold for over $100,000 but today is listed for under $40,000. Today, I’m back with another bargain high-end 4WD, a 2006 Porsche Cayenne Turbo. This all-terrain rocket ship originally sold for $100,575 yet is…

Overland Classifieds :: 2015 Range Rover LWB V8 Supercharged

One person’s loss is another’s gain thanks to the depreciation of luxury vehicles, like today’s Range Rover Supercharged. This 4WD rocket ship was on sale in 2015 for over $100,000 but can be picked up today for less than half that. It’s a very attractive prospect to own an overland-ready rig that can tackle the…
