The Land Rover Defender 110 is a well proven expedition vehicle. Our decision to use one was based on several factors (see Why a Defender 110?).
As with any expedition vehicle, ours is continually changing as we use it. Modifications are made, updated, improved or removed based on our experience in the field. This is not a linear process, and I expect it will never be complete. So to document the truck "as it is" I will document the modification iterations that it has gone through. In addition I will document major repairs and services.
