Mainly amazed at the stupidity of driving a high performance SUV with literally no support through a barren wilderness.

If you do that, drive an old school Land Rover Defender with the four cylinder diesel that can run in cooking oil and be fixed by anyone with a modicum of mechanical ability even if they never saw it before. I have one rubbing inthe Negev that is from the early 1980 that was left by either the Syrians or the Eqyptians as they ran away. Had bullet holes in the fuel tank. I don’t think I’ve ever done anything to it but put oil and fuel.

Ignore the typos. Quick correct on a phone.

That was a stupidity, of course, but I’ve had much fun reading about this man’s adventures.

The main thing is what for is that Range Rover intended? With all its offroad bells and whistles, but uncapable of an off-road ride far from civilised places?

90% of automobiles in rural Mongolia are UAZ or Toyota LC. Any LR is exotics.
