Hi There!
Got back from Liwa yesterday evening. The first photos (taken with a digital camera) are already posted on my site. Check out http://www.mid-east-off-road.com/ont....mv?0000000004
More photos and a write up will follow, but I have to wait for the slides to be developed.
The Pajero went superbly - no real worries at all. Although I know most of you Sahara people travel huge distances on your trips for weeks at a time, I work out here and have to report for duty this morning, so we can only cover a distance of say 150km or so through the dunes.
We did the first 80km using a sand track that formed part of the route for a recent UAE Desert Challenge Rally, but to make it more 'interesting' we cut across one corner of the route cross-country. Absolutely superb!
I'll keep you informed of when new material is on my site about it and also when I have news about the possible publication of the article in 4x4 Magazine of the UK.
Catch you later,
