Because they actually Love what they do. 90% of the rest are just following the Trend. Faking it. Becky is awesome ! Even her voice sounds like from a documentary , idk maybe just the accent lol
Good work, info re split charge relay. Its jobs is to separate the start and leisure batteries. This means when the engine is running, the relay allows your leisure battery to charge. When engine off, the batteries are separate, so if you run down the leisure battery, your start battery will still be ready to go. The 140A is purely what current the relay is rated to.
it is so good watching a d2 being lovingly adapted to overlanding with care and compassion as to how you want it Becky. an amazing job that will last you years. looking forward to following you on your travels 😁😁😊😊
Percy is looking absolutely amazing with the new improvements. Looking forward to seeing you getting out on your travels and enjoying all the hard work you've put in. :)
Nice one Beck! I'm from the land down under which as you can imagine, is 4x4 travelling paradise. Would recommend the concept of bedroom on the roof. ( all up not that heavy if you choose well) then all the vehicle becomes slide out kitchen and storage. Keep the centre of gravity low. And remember that weight is your enemy. Happy off roading!
Soon you will have Percy all finished and ready to enjoy so many more adventures. Happy for you. Thank your for showing what you have gotten done. Have a wonderful day.
Looks good. I have set up my Discovery is a similar way. I have a tent on the roof, winch, lockers, solar power, refrigerator and more. I love the truck.
Looking awesome Becky. Total off road, off grid bit of kit. And call it an Overlander as got the spare wheel high up. So picky on that haha. Brilliant one girl. Keep loving the adventure 👍
That awning is terrific, so spacious and easy to set up. Couldn't ask for more. I also really like how the rims turned out all painted up. Steel was a great choice for durability.-
It's an amazing transformation that looks absolutely brill and will make future trips so much more enjoyable. Hope you and Percy have many great adventures, which I look forward to watching.
Very Nice Becky, Glad to see Percy transforming into the Landy he's meant to be. Been watching you since you bought him. Enjoy every moment of the lifestyle. Greetings from South Africa 🙋♂️. Looking forward to your next vid.
PERCY is looking awesome with his new all terrain boots! The awning is amazing and buys you so much space, I think that’s as good a tent space as any. Looking forward to your travels and I am sure the word Scotland will feature. 😎
One of the best channels. Most van lifer build channels are constantly rebuilding their van for the free merchandise & don't actually travel anywhere. Becky is the female version of Ray Mears who obviously adores the great outdoors & bushcraft. Puts other channels to shame. She has shown in past that you can make do with the bare necessities then add as she go along.
Been watching your videos on and off for, I don't know, a few years now I guess. You've come a long way since the little girl I first saw going out in the woods on her own. Well done you!
You know what as a camper van dreamer - I AM CONVERTED! Landy all the way, such a great build, I'm going to binge watch your available videos - I love your setup so much, I hoping to pick up as many pointers to build a cycle touring base vehicle and get myself away and out in to the wilderness - cheers
Limo tint the rear windows and security film on the others starting to look realy good don't get it lifted or you won't reach the awning tint devil in kidderminster does a great job at window tinting
Brilliant video! Get yourself an ex MOD widetrack Sankey trailer and a NATO tow hitch. You can convert that into all sorts of things (sink, cooker, slide out hob, shower etc etc).
Becky, great choice on the BF Goodrich and the batwing awning. Much smarter. I noticed your back wiper running, that motor won't last long if you always run it. Just run it enough to clear the glass then shut it off.😁
Awesome Becky, I’m so excited for you; and Percy is looking fab & very smart too! Enjoy your adventure and I’ll look forward to seeing your (off road) videos in the future! 🚙👣⛺️🇪🇺🦉👍😎
I love what you are doing to your Disco! I travel in the states in a 2001 Discovery II with a V-8. You have given me some inspiration on some things to add to the Rover! Thanks!
Your Discovery build is so inspirational! The awning and shower are unlike anything I have ever seen! Percy was my Grandpa (Pompa’s name) his last name was Jackson. So I love hearing his name. The road and hiking paths are always calling me back to England where I was born. I live stateside now. Last year I was able to travel in a small Moho for 4 months living my dream and it did not disappoint! But I found I really didn’t need a Moho. Even a small one, a NuSurf was way to much for me. I’m now considering micro camper conversion but Percy is like a sparkly jewel that is kinda distracting me 😁🤣. You go girl!
Can't beat that South African gear. My first experience of Eezi-awn was using their rooftop tents in Botswana. Great products. Camp Cover also great for organising / storage / protection.
Hi Becky loved the video on the land rover. Just wanted to say that you have put some money and work into your land rover and just follow your dream. It's coming along brilliantly look forward to your next adventure and take care xx
Hi Becks. That awning looks amazing. Can picture you now parked up chilling out under the awning overlooking some amazing view in the Scottish highlands. Can't wait to follow your future adventures xx
Hi Becky,Percy is looking great,I think you would have plenty of room for a roof tent aswel as storage box’s up top,storage box above cab and tent behind…
Coniston green,my first discovery was same colour,enjoy it becks,keep it standard suspension the drive right then,good luck in all you do your smashing it x
That shower curtain reminds me of a Magicians disappearing act, enter, zip closed, clap twice, and we are now in the Highlands. Would be an interesting edit one-day......Cheers!
Amazing! It’s all starting to come together! Can’t wait to see the progress. I’m hoping to build a little removable camping set up for my jeep in the summer and I’m getting so many ideas/inspiration from this series❤
Really enjoying these videos.. just a little tip from somebody who’s had the same 2001 disco from new.. don’t rush that gear box, especially 1st to 2nd.. take some time and the gearbox will last!
Hi, I have been through Nevis a few times over many years, stayed a couple of times four wheel driving and motor cross riding. Great place, you have shown me things I've never seen or noticed before. Keep up the great work and my wife and I really enjoyed your video 😊
... Nice to see the excitement ... Building up an overlander to your own likes and needs is rewarding process and over time changes can always be made ... With the limited space of a Landrover ,, a roof tent would be a good choice , especially when staying somewhere for more than a day or two ... Can't wait to see the adventures ahead ..... Stay Safe ...
You need to spray those counterbalance blocks black on the rims, keep them videos going, I’ve followed you for ages and you’re information is inspiring others to get out. 👍🏻
Things are looking fantastic Becky, giving "Percy" a speed tunnel on his roof :-), the awning is just fabulous and a proper shower area, your going all posh there Becky, good for you. As I would tell the lads in my troop, anyone can be uncomfortable it takes skill and planning to be out and about in comfort and be some what stylish. Percy's boots look like they should take you over some iffy terrain. Looking forward to seeing you all kitted out and on the trail.
Love your stuff 👏 as always and I think you may of given land-rover a boost in sales 😀 hope they acknowledge 👍 that carry on with your fantastic intentions I always love the videos of you 3
Love your video and so exciting to see Percy turning into an overlander! Great choice of equipment, Eezi-Awn gear is great quality which I had on my D2 for years in Oman. The same applies to BF Goodrich All-Terrains, they are simply the best in all conditions! Looking forward to your next video. So glad you kept the steel wheels they look so cool on an overlander! 👍
Fascinating and timely to watch this build. I’ve got a D3 I’m looking at converting because I want to tour Iceland. My brother has a D2 with a similar 270° awning fitted and it is an awesome addition. Very practical.
I bought a 2002 Discovery series 2 and it already had roofrack, awning, bullbar & big lights, winch, new big tyres and reverse camera. Spent the last couple of months watching various build outs to get some ideas, looking forward to seeing what you do! Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 👍
Becca, I just came across your channel and subbed! But I’d like to offer a bit of advice if I may… I would seriously look into a DC to DC charge controller. It will keep the house battery a lot happier and it will last longer. If you decide to go to lithium, it is a must! Do the research. I had the exact setup you have and my battery was done after six months. Cheers from Vancouver
Me and my mate was coming back from Scotland today and we Pomped our horn at u on m6 It was a really nice surprise to see you and Percy Percy was looking great by the way lol driver looked abit tired tho😅 happy lovey nice to see you x
Hi Becks loving the new videos of truck life. Looking to do this myself with a Disco. I know you couldn’t video where you sourced your truck but can you provide the location. Keep up the good work & great content,looking forward to your future trips.
Brilliant video and it's all coming together,, Becky IAM a new subscriber and I can only see this channel getting better and better best wishes from Shropshire Phil 👍😊
Very nice, make yourself comfortable and Dean can help you out a bit. Laugh, I also come over the creek and help Dean watch out. Bottle of good scotch and we are perfect. Greetings from Frankfurt, nice video.
Done the Landy thing, had two. I loved the idea of em but they always let me down. Gone over to the Landcruiser now. Just as capable but more comfortable and refined. Hope all goes well.
The build so far on the outside is looking super tough 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪 The build so far on the inside is looking nice and girly 👀👀👀👀👀👀 For you 👍👍👍👍👍. I think the guys that APR think your the Queen of England they really went out of their way to help you 🤗🤗🤗🤗 And I like to thank them for that 👍. The hole thing is coming together nicely wow !! Can’t wait to see more.. As we say Down Under you can sit around my camp fire any day ⛺️🔥 Take care thanks for sharing.
Pricey looking great,you definitely went with the right make of tyres. Awning and rack are brilliant were they pricey?I would love 1 of those awnings. Thanks for the update.
You won’t regret the BFG’s been running them for years. Best tyre. Some degreaser will get the blue off the white writing. Best of luck with your D2. I’m currently swapping my TD5 engine in mine.
Best looking suv of its time! I wanted to get own of those but they only sold the gas unreliable ones where I Iive. I'm jealous you fit in there so well in there, I wouldn't :(
Great video. So down to earth and informative. Love watching your videos and seeing all the progress you've made and just how much you love life! Quick question...where did you get your fabulous headband? x
Becky those wheels look awesome and really adds muscle to Percy 😊 he won’t be bullied at the gym now will he. Make sure you take in some adventures in the Cotswolds near where I live as there are some many great places up here to explore. Have fun and be safe. Dave 👍
I’m new to your channel, I also have a passion for all things outdoors, especially if it includes land rovers, biking etc haha. I’ve subscribed and sure will be following you through the year to see all your content! Great work.
Honestly, UK van/car lifer videos just hit differently than the other ones. Love how excited you seem!
Thank you Robin!
Because they actually Love what they do. 90% of the rest are just following the Trend. Faking it.
Becky is awesome ! Even her voice sounds like from a documentary , idk maybe just the accent lol
because they actually go offroad in their SUVs
There’s always something so grounding and therapeutic about your videos. Love it. Keep up the good work. Percy is looking fab 👌
If this was myself it would be all the gear and no idea!!! You've got this living outdoors down to a tee, another good video Becky, well done 🏴👍
Thank you so much Stephen!

🙋♂️. Looking forward to your next vid.
Extraordinary additions made with hard work. Well designed, these car‘s extentions will fill the needs! 😃
May it serve you well
Awesome Becky that looks like it would go anywhere.keep up the great work love it love watching your channel 👌
PERCY is looking awesome with his new all terrain boots! The awning is amazing and buys you so much space, I think that’s as good a tent space as any. Looking forward to your travels and I am sure the word Scotland will feature. 😎
This is a very important UA-cam channel on UA-cam and you Becky are fantastic star of bushcraft industry and just brilliant channel toooo
One of the best channels. Most van lifer build channels are constantly rebuilding their van for the free merchandise & don't actually travel anywhere.

Wow it's coming along well, Percy is a happy boy.
Limo tint the rear windows and security film on the others starting to look realy good don't get it lifted or you won't reach the awning tint devil in kidderminster does a great job at window tinting
Brilliant video! Get yourself an ex MOD widetrack Sankey trailer and a NATO tow hitch. You can convert that into all sorts of things (sink, cooker, slide out hob, shower etc etc).
Mais um excelente trabalho realizado. Parabéns pelo empenho e dedicação. Sucesso no canal...
Becky, great choice on the BF Goodrich and the batwing awning. Much smarter. I noticed your back wiper running, that motor won't last long if you always run it. Just run it enough to clear the glass then shut it off.😁
Wow you have done a great job in such a short space of time, looks absolutely awesome now!! Nice one
Awesome Becky, I’m so excited for you; and Percy is looking fab & very smart too! Enjoy your adventure and I’ll look forward to seeing your (off road) videos in the future! 🚙👣⛺️🇪🇺🦉👍😎

You said it best, it looks beast! Really well thought out additions and you didn't go with crazy big tires which is smart.

Hi Becky loved the video on the land rover. Just wanted to say that you have put some money and work into your land rover and just follow your dream. It's coming along brilliantly look forward to your next adventure and take care xx
The steelies in black with those tyres look ace!
Thanks Andy!
Wow, great stuff! It's amazing seeing it all come together. You must be keen to get out there again with Percy when it's ready to go.
Hi Becks. That awning looks amazing. Can picture you now parked up chilling out under the awning overlooking some amazing view in the Scottish highlands. Can't wait to follow your future adventures xx
Thank you Michael! 😊
So refreshing to have a novice go through the motions in the uk. Made my life this has
Looking good lass. A roof tent would be a nice addition. Thanks for showing us the progress you are making.
Thank you so much! :)
the flat black wheels look cool. Great idea to just paint them
My friend had curtains lined with magnets so they clip to your windscreen and wide panels too..... nice and quick.... and not railings!
Hi Becky,Percy is looking great,I think you would have plenty of room for a roof tent aswel as storage box’s up top,storage box above cab and tent behind…
Mods are looking good, especially the wheels and new tyres 👌🏼
Coniston green,my first discovery was same colour,enjoy it becks,keep it standard suspension the drive right then,good luck in all you do your smashing it x
Your Landover and the extras looks so amazing, i know they will serve you well.
Thank you Dana!
Hi Becky what a Great motor, you can really expand your horizons with that, its well cold in North Lincolnshire. Both take Good care
That shower curtain reminds me of a Magicians disappearing act, enter, zip closed, clap twice, and we are now in the Highlands.
Would be an interesting edit one-day......Cheers!
Amazing! It’s all starting to come together! Can’t wait to see the progress. I’m hoping to build a little removable camping set up for my jeep in the summer and I’m getting so many ideas/inspiration from this series❤
Your landy is looking proper good, love it, brilliant
You are going the right way in life .wish i did what you did live off grid .its impossible to own a home .good luck 👍
Really enjoying these videos.. just a little tip from somebody who’s had the same 2001 disco from new.. don’t rush that gear box, especially 1st to 2nd.. take some time and the gearbox will last!
Good Job Looks great Hope it's home for some great adventures
Really enjoying your videos and the transformation to your Land Rover. You have some great ideas, so interesting! 👍
The Disco is looking fantastic , I'm super chuffed for you !
