Thanks for your contribution to the aussie 4wd community. It's been great watching you and the beast in action along with other 4wders that were with you in your vids. Have a break mate and enjoy other aspect of life eg family, mazda club etc etc. I salute you sir for your time and efforts. Well done mate! All the vids are off high quality and well edited. Gonna miss ya and when the heart is not there then time to find something else to love. GoodLuck!
Thank you for many fantastic and entertaining videos over the years, it has been informative and at times a very humorous channel, I'll miss it for sure, but life comes first, onward and upward as they say! All the best to your growing family, cheers!
Always enjoyed watching you dance over ever obstacle in your fabulous Defender, while your mates revved and thrashed their way through. All the best and thanks for the really excellent footage.👍👏
congrats on the news of a new baby, enjoy the fun times you are going to have. thanks for all the hours you spent making content to make my sunday mornings great. we have really appreciated how much time you have devoted to the build and the driving.. thank you.
Well done mate. Thanks for the great videos. I am sure you will have fun with the rotary (but it is also only a 2 seater!!). I'll bet you will be back with the little one in a few years camping....perhaps in a Grenadier! All the best, safe travels and thanks again.
Thanks for keeping us entertained 👍 Been great watching a Land rover from a viewer in the UK 🇬🇧 The hobby is no longer as enjoyable if it feels like work 😉 Thanks again 👌
Cheers Damo for the 4x4 content over the last few years, it’s always been entertaining, enjoy the next chapter of your life with your partner and the coming of your child, tc all the best
Damo', -congrats on the new addition to the family. - was awesome offroading with you the couple times we went out. - you have pushed so many boundaries with offroading in such a short time, many would struggle to emulate. - your dedication to offroading was second to none. - well done on securing your dream car. I had a Mk2 1984 Supra as my first car and I wish to build another one day. - if the two seats of the defender are an issue for the babysat how arenyou gonna fit a babyseat in the RX7? 🤔 - I totaly understand your loss of interest in the whole social media offroad scene....it can be toxic, and your sanity and family (plus privacy) always comes first. Take care.👍
Thanks for great memories and inspiration Damo Helped a lot seeing you get out there with mates and having a great time Great content 👊💥👊 All the best of health for MUM, baby and yourself…. What a blessing for your next chapter in life…..
Been watching some of your old ones this week, have watched them all. Good to have all them memories but it's a pain in the ass filming evertime you go out. All the best 🤙
Totally get it mate. You need to enjoy whatever it is you do and most importantly be in the moment. Congrats on the baby and thanks heaps for all you've done and shared. Best of.luck Cheers Mick
Thanks for all the great, no bullshit,, videos. Of all the channels on RUclips, your's was right there at the top. Congratulations and best wishes for you and your family. Živio.🇭🇷
Totally understandable 🙂 So much time is spent and when it turns sour it not worth it. Thank you for the great content and I wish you and the family the best! 👍🙂 Cheers, Simon
Message coming from very far away location in the Mediterranean, from the island of Malta. You, your Landy and your adventures will be missed mate! Thanks so much for sharing such experiences! Good luck with your baby and all the best of luck in any new ventures that you might have. Stay safe!
Great video mate. I was a late commer to your channel. The first video of yours I watched was your review of the Drifta kitchen. Thanks for closing the loop wondered where you've been the last 5 months or so since the last video. Good on you for doing what's right for you. It's a hard call to make, and if the passion isn't there, it's too much effort making videos to do it if you're not enjoying it anymore. All the best with the RX7 :-) Video's of the RX? Maybe?
Thanks for the explanation, interesting to hear your reasoning. Best of luck on future endeavors and thanks for putting up some great content. Also 9:00 love it lol
Watched a few of your videos over the last couple of years - amazing rig and skills. I initially thought you were shooting in the Orkney Islands....took me a couple of vids to realise it was Aus! Enjoy being away from the frantic pace..
Wow Always loved your videos, good decision on your behalf, totally understand your reasons. You will be missed you gave soo much the Aussie 4wd community. Loved your Defender, it must be difficult parting with it, that's your creation. All the best and thanks for the good times.
Thanks Damo for your contribution to 4x4. I read your 233page aulro introduction post in one late night sitting. Know that I rode my 110puma with three baby seats in the 2nd row if you decide to come back. Peace out. Enjoy your next chapter.
Bro, you make some of the best 4x4 content in Australia. No narrative, no shenanigans, just straight out awesome driving on tough tracks. Thank you for your efforts and hopefully we see you back in another rig in the future.
Hi Damo, I want to thank you so much for everything you put together! It's been a pleasure to fallow you during this last couple years, I wish you all the best in your life for the Cummings year's. Congrats to you and your wife for the little one that coming haha, I've got two children and they fit great in the 90' of course you ain't got that much room to fit stuff but it's the way it is 😅 and of course every children love defender so the rest doesn't matter haha. I have a infinite respect for you man! Take care, enjoy every moment of your life. Cheers mate 🍻 🍻
Although I have never met you I am also the same way with diving head first into things and getting lost in it. It causes alot of issues in relationships and personal life. Take the time away from it you need and come back to it as a hobbie without the rest of the stuff. It's a good video to show the pressures and the issues with trying to create content best of luck with the future man!
Going to miss your videos big time mate good luck in the future congratulations on the baby family comes first no matter what. Thanks again with everything you did well Bloody done give yourself a pat on the back for what you have done 👌🤝👍
100% feel this! making videos is Alot of work and yours are superior to mine! Dont surpose anyone is running the 24 hour chalange this year? i was keen!
I think it is very sad to see one of the most capable drivers and vehicles leaving the scene, but understand completely why you did it. RUclips content does become a job, with the smallest part of that job being doing the fun stuff that you enjoy, the activity being filmed. When doing what you enjoy becomes scripted, then it is only time until your enthusiasm goes, and the rest, like the editing and preparing content takes too much time when you have a little one coming. Thank you so much for awesome content and flying the flag for one of the most awesome off-roaders ever built. Good luck with your future ventures.
Good decision, but also know you will still have an audience if you find a reasonable way and time to give simular offroad content on camera. Thanks for your interesting and quality content.😭 If you ever need ideas RUclips is here to help😉
Do what’s best for you and your family and whatever you want mate who gives a shit what anyone else says it’s not their choice. Thankyou for the great content you have made for us.
Sorry to hear that you have sold Orkney and won't be producing any more 4wd content. However, if your heart isn't in it, then that has got to be the best decision. Thanks for the awesome videos and creating such a wicked Defender. All the best to you and your family.
You have to do what makes you happy, at the end of the day you lost what you enjoyed about the challenge of 4wding, it would be wrong to carry on if you don't enjoy it. Thanks for the videos they are great. All the best for the future 🙌 👏
Tough decision to make but totally get it. Down side is, you will drive down the road one day, see a Defender and miss it. If you have anything you want to sell, let me know. After some original rims, seat etc lol Good luck Chris
Damn dude just get a 110 and get your little one out there with you. You don't need to record it for us. Don't forget to get your kid out there off the beaten path to experience the wilderness.
This is the worst video I will see this week!! I will miss you Damo, as will many. Have fun with that Rotary.. you're gonna need deep pockets mate lol. Dovidenja
Enjoy the mazda mate . Ive just started going off-road again after 25 years away from it . Had kids and got into dirtbikes heavily so the gq went . Im the same i go extreme then just go nope im done . it stays with ya though but i have to say off-roading is not the same . restrictions and too many people doin it now . i walked a track today an hour from sydney that hardley anybody knows about that we drove in the 90s but its a nightmare now . orkney would give it a crack but would be on the winch a lot . 30 degree's plus , kitty litter and ruts that 40s would struggle in with tree roots and rocks on the peak of the steps and no rest for 1200m . Thanks for the content i enjoyed it .

Not really babies and marriage destroy men they don't figure out till the are drained, old, and to far gone to do anything about it.

Do what’s best for you and your family and whatever you want mate who gives a shit what anyone else says it’s not their choice. Thankyou for the great content you have made for us.
rotary powered budget Rally Sierra would be sick
No need to apologise. Your moving on to a new chapter in your life . Congratulations hope it smooth sailing and many years of happiness to come.
All the best in the future.
that's fair enough .. well done !!
Always good to see the defender out in the bush but i hope the new owner does the same.
I think you really got a job as Colin Farrell's stunt double. JK. Loved your videos. Good luck.
Sad to see you go bud. Does the new owner have a RUclips channel by any chance?
Its been a pleasure mate
Sorry to hear that you have sold Orkney and won't be producing any more 4wd content. However, if your heart isn't in it, then that has got to be the best decision. Thanks for the awesome videos and creating such a wicked Defender. All the best to you and your family.

Tough decision to make but totally get it. Down side is, you will drive down the road one day, see a Defender and miss it.
If you have anything you want to sell, let me know. After some original rims, seat etc lol
Good luck
Chris
Esa defender esta pero divina!!! Que modelito es?
...thankgoodness you never rolled it/damaged the vehicle seriously..
Nice shed
Why did you name it Orkney?
😩👍💪
Darn but makes sense.
Prob need a ten year break bud from the scene, happens to everyone i guess
Damn dude just get a 110 and get your little one out there with you. You don't need to record it for us. Don't forget to get your kid out there off the beaten path to experience the wilderness.
Agood4x4 guy makes his own mods ect & gets it engineered & not bolt on stuff.
This is the worst video I will see this week!! I will miss you Damo, as will many. Have fun with that Rotary.. you're gonna need deep pockets mate lol. Dovidenja
Bye bye 👋

Enjoy the mazda mate . Ive just started going off-road again after 25 years away from it . Had kids and got into dirtbikes heavily so the gq went . Im the same i go extreme then just go nope im done . it stays with ya though but i have to say off-roading is not the same . restrictions and too many people doin it now . i walked a track today an hour from sydney that hardley anybody knows about that we drove in the 90s but its a nightmare now . orkney would give it a crack but would be on the winch a lot . 30 degree's plus , kitty litter and ruts that 40s would struggle in with tree roots and rocks on the peak of the steps and no rest for 1200m . Thanks for the content i enjoyed it .
