BEST
DAYS
EVER.
Real overland adventures, rewritten through the human lens. The person is always the hero. The Landy is the companion. These are the stories that made the scratches worth it.
The Whisper That Said "Go Now"
He is 87 years old. He lives in a small one-bedroom flat. He doesn't have a garden. And he is about to drive a rattling, leaking, 64-year-old Land Rover from Singapore to London. He did this before, in 1955. Now they're calling this one The Last Overland.
"An inner whisper has been saying to me — do it now, before it's too late. You're only here once."
What a Grandfather Leaves Behind
The plan was for Tim Slessor to be in the passenger seat. Then Tim fell ill. And the seat stayed empty. But Nat got in anyway. There is something about a grandson climbing into the same vehicle his grandfather drove 64 years earlier that doesn't need explaining.
"You drive through these countries through the back door, and you realise that most people are just the same."
55 Years to Finish
In 1958, two veterinary students at Cambridge had an idea. Cape Horn to the Arctic Circle. They made it almost all the way — and then ran out of time. For 55 years, that last stretch of road sat unfinished. Then Ed Angel found the Land Rover.
"I never thought I'd see this vehicle again."
