Hi long time since I have posted but in the summer I traveled round Europe with my Jimny and Caravan + girlfriend :)

We traveled through France, Belgium,Switzerland and Italy. The Jimny performed faltlasly the whole trip even with caravan steep mountain roads and 43 degree heat in Italy!!

We travelled off road on some old military roads in Italy which was excellent.

Here are some pics below just shows you don't need a massive 4x4.

Looks awesome! What views!

I'm lining this sort of thing up for my retirement! I'm only 38 but looking forward to it!

Adventure of a lifetime, Adam...and the little Eriba is perfect for that sort of trip, from memory it only weighs 600kgs.
The memories you bring back will last you both for ever..I'm really jealous :sick:

Any idea what height you were at when taking the pics, and was there any difficulty with the Jimny's breathing?

Sam.....I know I was banging on earlier in the year about my teardrop, took it to Cornwall for 2 weeks and it was ace...but...not nearly as versatile or convenient as Adam's Eriba, which has many advantages over mine.
Don't want to hi-jack Adam's thread, but yes, we're planning a similar venture for 2017

Gus ;)

Adam...forgot to ask...how long did your little adventure take to complete? ;)
