When I saw this on Euromaxx Highlights (Deutsche Welle TV Germany) just now I thought it may be worth sharing it here.

Here are some highlights of a world wide road trip that ended with giving the Mercedes SUV "live in" to the
Mercedes Museum.

I thought shipping the Truck via container ship from one continent to another to be quite interesting.

Your thoughts ?
 
Wow, just wow!! What a trip!

And about shipping, yep, that's how all the UK vanners get their hands on North American vans...they buy them here and have them shipped.

Years and years ago we met a couple from South Africa that were doing a North American tour for a year. They had their van shipped out of England after they had done all the parts of Europe that they wanted to see.
 
Makes me want to downsize lol. My fathers name was Otto...
 
Last winter me and Vic met a couple from France who had been touring the US for the last 3 years and were going back home.They had a very nice 24 ft class c they wanted to sell for $7000 OBO.Still kicking myself for passing it by.Course brains have never been my strong suit.
 
Seriously cool! My kinda people! I do wonder what happened to his wife.... May she rest in peace.

Jesse.
