Our Land-Rovers

To us the only vehicle really befitting the title “Safari Expedition” is the Series Land-Rover. As Land-Rover nuts, we knew that this was a vehicle that evoked a great sense of adventure in anyone who travelled in it. This rugged 4x4 is a legend worldwide and we knew that no other vehicle would do!

We run a fleet made up exclusively of Series-Land Rovers. Our main touring vehicles are 4 well-loved long wheelbase Series 3 “Landies”. All carry the unique and distinctive Malayan Safaris livery and in keeping with tradition, we named them “Mohican”, “Bushman”, “Tru Tok” and “Udumboo”. They are fitted with 2.25 litre petrol engines, and carry full offroad recovery, safety and first aid gear, allowing us to meet any eventuality. Inside they are fitted with comfortable seats and an ice box for cold drinks.

We’d like to point out that our vehicles are not air-conditioned. Why? We strongly feel that any trip should be an experience for all of the senses – and so one must not only see, but also smell and hear what really makes up the heart of Malaya. It’s far more meaningful than being cooped up and sealed off in some air-conditioned box!

We also have another 4 Series “Landies” in support. Two are rare 1956 Series One long wheelbase pickups, named “Tanjong” and “Jelebu”. One is a 1966 Series 2a hardtop called “Angus”, while the fourth is a 1980 Series 3 short wheelbase station wagon named “Adik”. These vehicles carry out logistics and resupply duties, allowing us to carry all we need for our jungle expeditions. We also own a 1955 Brockhouse trailer which we have converted into a mobile field kitchen.

All our vehicles are rigorously maintained to the highest of standards to ensure your trip goes safely and smoothly.
