Hey PYM808,
The 2019 trip went off smoothly. There is an article out about it in the Feb edition of Land Rover Monthly and may be additional articles in other mags. There is a bit of a write up on the PPE website as well.
The logistics of the trip went well. Ferry out of Marseilles was easy. Port clearance in Tunis was surprisingly easy and quick. Lots more people speak English than I would have expected, although French did come in handy a few times.
The desert portion was also a success. We found the location of the missing WWII vehicles and parts of them but not the whole vehicles yet.
I have just started planning a return trip for Oct 2020. Looks like 5-6 vehicles this time and a larger crew. Will be at the Adventure Overland spring show in Stratford upon Avon with a stand and making a presentation on the trip.
If there is anything more specific you wanted to know, pm me.
