A New Kid on the Block

On the 1st November, 2024 we welcomed a brand new 78 Series Troop Carrier to the family. A dream of Micks since he was a kid, one that always seemed so out of reach and unsuitable, was finally attainable for us. We were in a position to buy one of the last manual V8s produced with only 50km on it. So obviously, we bought it!

While it was still at the dealer, we had paint protection, a reversing camera and window tint added. Since getting it home, we have changed the wheels, added a bonnet protector and weather shields, headlight protectors and just installed the roof rack over the Christmas break.
We have been blessed with the ultimate adventure mobile and are super excited to get it out for some touring throughout 2025.

Putting the Rhino platform onto the Troopy

We had heaps of fun, somehow managed to not have any arguments and went on our first adventure in the Troopy yesterday. Stay tuned for some photos and videos :)
