New Cars The
Latest 4x4s to be seen in the showrooms, and some that haven't made it
just yet. The Ford Explorer Concept and the Toyota A-BAT might never make it but the Mahindra pickup, the Mini SUV and the 5litre Range Rovers definitely will!
New Gear Mud Stuff switch legends, convenient OS navigation on your mobile phone, replacement fuel filters for those using Veg Oil for fuel and Maxpedition hardwear, probably the best expedition bags and cases on the planet.
Armchair Offroad THe RGS Expeditition Handbook is a superb tool for anyone planning an overland trip, inca-Kola is a great travelogue of exactly what COULD happen and the April issue of LRO is a must read for all Land Rover owners. Also there is a great new Off-Road game on the way.

Defender Azalai This particular camper conversion really does take the endurance out of the expedition. Travel off-road and travel in comfort.

20 Questions Andrew Graham from Allisport gives us his views on the 4x4 world
Events - 4x4 Adventure Challenge James gives us the full run down on the first winch challenge of the year from 4x4 Adventures.
Events - Ecuador 4x4
Ecuador might not be somewhere you would head off to for a weekend offroading but it offers a great diversity of terrain and has a fanatical band of enthusiasts on tap.
Workshop - fitting Mud Stuff Mud Rails The best - and simplest - modification a Defender owner can do, they should be standard fit from the factory!!
