That truly is the best Land Rover conversion I've ever seen. So utterly complete and well thought through. You could make a decent living building explorer conversions for people with more money than skillz.

You know…you guys may have the nicest bunch of viewers on YT. Seriously! When reading the comments on your channel I start feeling a bit more positive about the world. And as always I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching. TL:DR…and this comment read my mind - Jon, your mechanical expertise reminds me of my Dad. He could pretty much transfer his skills into multiple things and solved problems creatively too. He built a whole mini from stuff he got from multiple scrap yards…he was trained as a motorcycle mechanic but basically taught himself everything from plumbing to building. (And that was in the days before t’internet of course, because I’m getting old.) Mum would have practical ideas about how to solve a problem and Dad would make them a reality. You guys are both hugely talented and seem to complement each other well, and I’m sure the future’s going to be full of rewarding adventures. Hopefully you’ll continue taking us all along with you ⭐️

Oh what a brilliant transformation! Especially loved the sunshade and the pop up roof. You won't need your Arctic gear in Morocco, hopefully!. But the nights might be chilly so cosy duvet! Stay safe and we can't wait to join you on another adventure. 🎉❤

Overlanding American here. Great build. Seriously, you guys get high marks for what you have accomplished. My wife was quick to suggest you consider making a Velcro-ed front cover that will seal in the utensils pockets on the back door. As you drive down dirt roads or over sandy areas, the amount of grit that finds its way into your cabinet is remarkable. We have found covering stuff that is exposed makes a huge difference. Can’t wait to see how your shake out trip to Spain and Morocco goes. Please provide details on the amount of back pain a Defender can produce after a long-haul trip. (We’re Jeep people, so we had to get at least one Defender dig in, right?). Best of luck. We’re very much enjoying your channel - and, yes, we have “liked” and “subscribed .”

I'm one of the ones who found you on the Sainsbury's Van, but since watched the defender build. Super informative and defo taken a load of tips for our next build. One thing I was gonna mention was something I found for our electrics and not sure if you've come across as I don't think they advertise very well. CTEK. I was looking for something to charge the Leisure battery from the Alternator and Solar and their D250se is just amazing. And even trickle charges your starter battery from solar too!
