    Paul and team hit the ball out of the park with this build. Extremely impressed with the troopy's colour plus the plug and play setup of the whole build. Simplicity at its finest.

    I can confirm that the design and build of Manjaro’s interior is second to none. It’s very well thought out and well built. Have done 7500km on corrugated roads since the install. Love it. Well worth the investment.

    I'm an old bloke who has spent much of his working life banging around northern Australia in Toyotas. This build is fantastic. Congratulations to the builders, absolute legends. The thing that most people miss is keepng it simple and being able to pull your kit in and out. Not just for repairs but also for multitasking your Troopie whether it be piling in people or stuff for house renovations. I am full of Toyota love once again!

  • @janpur1417
    @janpur1417 6 месяцев назад +6

    THAT COLOR COMBINATION IS PROBABLY THE BEST FOR A TROOPY! YES, IN DEED THE BEST TROOPY YOU'VE EVER BUILT.. THEY WAY IT PULLS WHEN ACCELERATING.. ENGINE SOUND, INTERIOR, EXTERIOR... THAT IS FIRST CLASS! PAUL AND SIMON (IF I REMEMBER HIM CORRECTLY) DID A FANTASTIC JOB!

  • @adventures_with_simo
    @adventures_with_simo 6 месяцев назад +3

    The prank was excellent, to funny.
    But the thing stealing the show is the modular removable setup! That’s excellent. I love that it doesn’t restrict the use of the vehicle for other purposes. It can be a camper 4 weeks a year but can be a van for the rest. That’s brilliant.

  • @Peter79123
    @Peter79123 6 месяцев назад +4

  • @Lordoftheflatbush
    @Lordoftheflatbush 6 месяцев назад +4

    Paul & team did an amazing job and came up with fantastic solutions like the modular interior, crafted with great skill and experience. However, I find building up a car yourself is part of the fun and ensures every detail is based on your own decisions and skill level. This means you go through a learning cycle of constantly improving what does not work good enough en appreciate the things which work good enough. This is part of the essence of overlanding for me. I am looking forward to the adventures you will undertake in Africa. Much appreciated !

  • @kayeman001
    @kayeman001 6 месяцев назад +1

    wow, wow, wow - Paul and crew smacked that right out the park - colour is sweet, and I love the modular concept, that rocks - really impressive build, so much attention to detail - and, it sounds damn good too - congratulations

    Paul; You have done a great job managing this project, everything from the colour choice of the troopy to the modular install has been beautifully done. Nice clean lines throughout, it doesn't look cluttered which is great.
    Andrew; You are one lucky man to have such a team at your disposal for the build. I can see you are really happy with it so far. Your builds just keep on getting better, this one being the best by far. It will be interesting to see how you kit it out.

  • @hemaldaha

  • @stevenk805
    @stevenk805 6 месяцев назад +1

    Love the modularity! It’s genius. Incredibly practical to have a nice flat area for utility but also a full buildout as well. Best of both worlds.

  • @maverick2242
    @maverick2242 6 месяцев назад +3

    I like the color and the simplicity! I for one are sorta over all the 200-350k builds so many on RUclips are doing.
    I love Paul's philosophy and always have enjoyed him on the channel, I also loved the 105 build and was sad to see it go.
    But good work to everyone, looks and sounds good so far.🤘

  • @jonbarlow3542

  • @lionelredier9666
    @lionelredier9666 6 месяцев назад +2

    Certainly the most beautiful troopy so far. It combines sobriety and practicity to a level rarely reached without mentioning the wise choice of this superb color that recalls the elegance of a bygone era. Congratulations to the entire team responsible for this magnificent project and a special mention to Paul in this achievement. It is good to know you are back in Africa and I look forward to your future adventures aboard this beauty. Lionel

  • @AndrewTinWA
    @AndrewTinWA 6 месяцев назад

    I love the bolt-in/out modular setup. I’ve often thought this approach would be good rather than attaching a 2000 piece overlanding kit into a vehicle one piece at a time. Fantastic.

    This makes me very excited! My personal dilemma is, do I want the bush plane first or the cruiser. I have the same idea to visit Southern Africa once a year, from Canada and keep my bush plane and cruiser over there…somehow
    You are going to have a ball!!!

  • @aljeeper3292

  • @D-WFR
    @D-WFR 6 месяцев назад +2

    Finally, an understanding that today ‘assets’ i.e. vehicles are dammed expensive. One simply can’t afford to have lots of vehicles, used for multiple purposes, sat on the drive.
    Here is the solution. A modular fit so that one changes the interior to fit the need. A camping car. A kid carrier, A rubbish hauler...changed on the inside, instead of changing the vehicle.

    • @marcpikas2859
      @marcpikas2859 6 месяцев назад +1

      Would be nice if manufacturers figured that out and offered custom options for intended purpose. Not everyone carries people on the back seat..

    • @nyausyaoc7207
      @nyausyaoc7207 6 месяцев назад +2

      Exactly how I use my 1hz troopy. For long family trips, I have 3 reclining captain's chairs for the kids that easily bolt off. With the chairs out I've carried tile and interior doors for a remodel recently, and off course its my camping vehicle for remote travel in Kenya. Can't beat the versatility.

  • @boringusername792

    @AKSHAYKUMAR-xx2ed 6 месяцев назад

    Great work Andrew, Paul and Team. Plug and play, modular, removable kit is the ultimate build. It appears all that has been done to all the troopies and trucks over the years has come together and perfected through this build as far as kitting the rear of the vehicle is concerned. I have my foolish thoughts / wish list on other aspects of building the ultimate overland vehicle but that is for another day.

  • @mattamner8895
    @mattamner8895 6 месяцев назад

    Fantastic high quality work, I just need a scaled down version of the bolt in boxes to fit a 76 series. In some respects, a troopy will remain set up as is, so the need to move the camping setup is useful but not essential. On a 76 series however, it often needs to be a daily drive with an occasional camping setup. Although in Australia, there was a company making a removable setup, however you basically need a forklift to get it in and out.
    Paul, please have a think about a modular system for the 76!, great work!

    I’d love to see what kind of hoops / hurdles one needs to overcome to own and store a vehicle in South Africa. We’re currently looking into how we can get a 78 as US based travelers… but the leading options are buying a GCC 78 and importing it into a country like Panama… or buying something second hand in say… the UK and battling with keeping it registered / insured / inspected. Thanks and based on the comment section it looks like this build is a home run.
