Hello Everyone,
My name is Johannes Kemp.
I was born in Johannesburg on the 5th of October 1967.
I live in Braunschweig in Lower Saxony in Germany. I speak German, English and Afrikaans.
I am an electrical engineer and MD at a German Company.
I have 4 Children - all Boys aged 7, 11, 12 and 13.
I own a Gen 2,5 (V40) LWB 2800 Pajero.
I have made no real mods except Remove the bent and battered side steps and rear mud flaps and fitted 33x10,5R15 BFG AT's.
On the wish list I have a 3.2 DID motor (my 2800 has timing chain and injection pump problems) and Diverse off Road equipment such as a decent roof rack, roof tent, awning, off road trailer, Hilift points etc.
My last 3 offroad trips have been muddy-sandy areas in nort eastern Germany, some Bavarian Alps, and some Mixed areas (Mountains, woods and grasslands) in Poland
I would like to do a trans alp trip, a tour in Andalusia, northern Africa, Namibia, South Africa and Iceland - and many more...
Other hobbies are painting, hiking, sailing, canuing, photograpy and many more...the problem is finding the time to do all these interresting things...
I use a Garmin GPS V with mapsource Europe, South Africa, and various Third Party maps - also topographic maps.
I have been 4x4 ing off road for about 12 years but never on long trips (not more than 2 weeks at a time).
I will post some pics once I have sorted some out.
Looking forward to chatting with you all.
Johannes

Welcome!!
You say you have done no real mods but you have fitted 33" tyres. Surely you needed at the very least a body lift and or suspension lift?
