    Has anyone seen/got a decent roof tent?

    For summer time European camping and Morocco trips I think these tents are fine. We had one cold night on the way back in Morocco when we were up in the Atlas Mountains where we all had our jackets/coats and hats on. Once inside the tent it was quiet comfortable and it kept the morning dew off...

    That sounds nice. That's one place I would like to go to. That should be cool enough for the 90.

    Think I will stick to my £49 tent from Decathlon. Looks like a lot of work and expense for not much advantage.

    Good luck with the transfer box oil leak. I changed mine a couple of times but the leaks still come back. I found using a Araldite type of sealant worked better. I also had to put the Araldite around each of the bolts that hold the plate in. Its one of those jobs that have to be done fairly...

    OK, we have found the official tour guide. That's you by the way. I would like to do the Plage Blanche which looks interesting, Anything else I'm open to suggestions. Last time we spent a bit of time in the forest and in the Atlas mountains which was interesting.

    Do i need a anti roll bar?

    None on my 200 tdi 110 Defender, and never even crossed my mind to fit one. I much prefer to have greater axle articulation. I'm sure you can find other things to spend your money on.

    Morocco Easter 2018

    Starting to think what I have to do to prepare the Defender for Morocco. 1) Put the roof rack and LED lighting back on. 2) put the bull bars back on. 3) still debating whether to put the snorkel back on or just take an extra air filter. 4) reinstall the CB aerial connections. 5) what to do...
