Overlander 4X4 Magazine

Packed with off-road machinery, overlanding inspiration, classic Land Rovers and adventure, the September 2026 issue leads with the remarkable story of a very early Land Rover Discovery, condemned by the MOT man but saved by its loving owner and transformed into an overland truck ready for round-the-world exploration.

There’s a trip inside a collector’s storage barn housing a dozen Series I Land Rovers, plus a characterful Series IIA proving that old Landies don’t need to have their personality restored out of them.

Things get seriously modified with an old Toyota Hilux turned into an off-road weapon by keeping a close eye on weight, while the new Porsche Macan 4S gets put to the test – including the rather unexpected challenge of taking an electric Porsche green laning!

We drive the practical Kia EV5, update you on latest news including Land Rover Classic bringing back colour-changing flip paint on a four-vehicle Works V8 Defender commission and the launch of the new all-electric Jeep Compass 4xe, plus the latest from the world of Rights of Way.

And if you fancy getting out there yourself, this month’s Roadbook heads to Salisbury Plain for a classic set of lanes across the military training area that are open only in summer.
