Overlander 4X4 Magazine November 2022 Back Issue

Half a century ago, in the days before the phrase ‘green laning’ had been invented, a bunch of suave young chaps-about-town borrowed an Austin Champ and put it on the Motorail train to Devon for a weekend of japes and wheezes. With their King’s Road haircuts and Sgt Pepper clobber, they must have looked quite a sight as they explored the countryside, and they certainly got noticed… and reported to the local police a couple of times.

Their story survives today because they told it in, would you believe, an early issue of Custom Car magazine. And it’s being told again now because the publishers of 4x4 have just bought Custom Car, giving us the chance to unearth what has, over time, become a really valuable historical document. Notably, while their laning was as anarchic as you’d expect, by the end of the weekend they had learned some of the lessons that have become everyday wisdom today.

Bringing things right up to date, we’ve been laning ourselves – aboard an all-electric Skoda Enyaq iV. Those 4x4-haters who’re always moaning about fumes and noise will really be confounded by this one…

Talking of laning, this month’s roadbook is a monster. One of the longest we’ve ever published, covering a series of magnificent lanes in the mountains and forests west of Llandrindod Wells – and while it’s already epic on its own, it’s also the first half of a two-parter containing another huge route next month. Something for the weekend, sir?

We’ve been high in the Himalayas, too, heading for the highest road in the world aboard a Suzuki SJ10 whose power output was, in theory, less than zero at such high altitudes. And from the mountains of India to the swamps of Carolina, we’re looking at a Land Rover Defender 90 transformed from a farmer’s wreck into Project Congaree – an heirloom off-roader of the very highest standard.

Since lockdown, there has been a huge growth in the number of people getting into camping, the outdoors and enjoying an off-grid lifestyle. More and more, as a society we want to get away. Away from the relentlessness of a working life that has increasingly invaded our homes; away from the tyranny of always-on electronics and ever-watchful social media; away from the pressure to be busy, to be productive, to be available.

When your every waking hour is spent feeling hunted, just disappearing into the countryside for the weekend is a blessed relief. And if you’re in a 4x4, you can disappear further away and deeper into it. Overlander 4x4 reflects Britain’s new-found interest in an outdoor lifestyle.

We’re not a magazine about camping, but a magazine about the sort of adventures that involve it. Primarily, we focus on overlanding – showcasing both trip-of-a-lifetime expeditions as well as adventures that are more modest and, for most of us, more attainable. As always with anything four-wheel drive, it’s going to be a journey worth making, so join us for the adventure.

As a subscriber you'll receive the following benefits:


•  A discount off the RRP of your magazine
•  Your magazine delivered to your device each month
•  You'll never miss an issue
•  You’re protected from price rises that may happen later in the year

You'll receive 13 issues during a 1 year Overlander 4X4 magazine subscription.

Note: Digital editions do not include the covermount items or supplements you would find with printed copies.
