U.K. To Singapore (maybe Melbourne) in a 2WD
 

Now then one and all!

As the title suggests I'm plotting a trip. U.K. To Singapore possibly on the Melbourne if funds can stretch to it! My question is has anyone done this in a 2WD vehicle?
I think I'm settled on a route from the U.K through E.U Russia, Kazakhstan, China, Burma, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore. (More or less)
Can it be done in a 2WD? My only real concerns from the research I've done is Kazakhstan in regards to the road conditions. Everywhere else seems have paved or good gravel roads.

Thoughts?

Thanks Jack

Most vehicles in the world are 2wd......a diff lock is useful but you will get there!

Hi Jack,

I am sure you can, my wife and I traveled from UK to Thailand in 2014 in our 814D merc and that only had 2 wheel drive, well we did have 4 wheels being driven by the engine as it has 6 wheels if you know what I mean.

Thanks for the feed back gents!

And the blog to read:thumbup1:

trying to do this on a budget and for what its worth I'm thinking that a Citroen Berlingo car (not van) could be a good choice. They seem fairly bullet proof and plenty of room for stuff!

Jack

I wouldn't take a citroen to the shops! the build quality is terrible, and I think you'll struggle with parts availability.

You'd be better with something like an old merc estate, or a lada, they're cheap to buy and well known all through your route

found a cheap Micra?
