No, a mate had one and was turning it into an overland expedition camper but seems to have abandoned it. I'd like one but would prefer it's little brother, the haflinger.

Any idea where he abandoned it? i could use it for spares ;-)

Halfingers look like a lot of fun
 
i took one for a test drive, very loud and noisy, and pretty poor handling on the road. Having looked at their capabilities, they are amazing off road - i suppose it depends what you want. I have visions of overlanding - but the thought of hours upon hours driving it put me right off. You have to use roads to get places too! I would rather a defender any day.

That's very interesting. Mine drives like an older Defender.... Surprisingly civilised

I drove a petrol ambulance one. It was awesome, but not what i wanted! To me the defender is fine, but the heat and noise from it was something else

I also have a 101 diesel and I would say the same about that. The Pinz is both much quieter and cooler. It is a little noisier than an old defender but there is not a lot in it. From an on road perspective I don't like motorway driving because of the low gearing but it's totally fine everywhere else.
 
surely that can't be right, can it?
