G'day, we're Isabelle & Jeremy. We live on the road travelling off-road Australia, since October 2020. Follow along our journey.
Breakages & The Unprepared - Outback Australian Workshop at Mt Dare
FREE GUIDES & HEMA MAPS FOR SALE ON OUR WEBSITE - www.lapsofmaps.au/
Expect the unexpected in the desert. We revisit our second home at the Mt Dare Hotel. This time, we helped out the workshop for 2 weeks during the busy Finke Desert Race of 2024.
Did we fix your car and try to get you out of trouble? There were many more recoveries and broken vehicles that did not come through the workshop!
We experienced rainfall, closed roads, the first State of Origin game (just) and muddy broken cars.
The Mt Dare Hotel is in Outback South Australia on the western edge of the Simpson Desert. Experience it for yourself. Dare to Prepare.

Beechworth & its surrounds took us by surprise and here's why. There is so much to see and do here accommodating all kinds of hobbies and fun activities.

Visits into the town of Beechworth & Eldorado took us back a century because the buildings are so wel...

Mate, you could work on my Y61 2004 Patrol ... Just one problem the Ptrol does not break down.
G'Day first time watcher of your adventures......... I have seen other programs that featured stopovers at Mt Dare, but this was fantastic to experience a behind-the-scenes at Mt Dare. What a lifestyle to be out there. Bloody fantastic!! You know so many Aussies venture offshore to experience other countries. Yet they would not have a bloody idea of their own backyard. Fellow Aussie get out there and experience Australia .... And suck the guts out life..
They don't make chassis like they used to, manufacturers give 0 care about rectifying the issue either
Definitely be in any remote workshops interest to have a few cheap cruuser/ Hilux/prado etc carcasses lieing around space permitting for spares that may not be readily sourced asap. May be the difference between being back on the road asap or stranded indefinitely til the parts arrive. How it was done BITD and got many a motorist out of trouble and BOTR. You guys rock BTW.
Awesome work guys👍
Gee wiz, check out those guns!
it amazes me the failures and damage caused by after market parts. LOVED the show. last time i was at Mount Dare there was a mice plague ! very interesting trying to sleep with hundreds of mice crawling literally over you all night. The Mount Dare cat was pretty fat and happy though
Just left this place today, didn't realise it was you guys. Awesome place to visit.
Gorgeous country out there. Miss my time working in the northern Flinders Ranges
Unreal..
Great work, doesn't matter where you are a good knowledgeable mechanic is all you need
that mazda its not the air bags it di.kh.e.d operator i helped a goose in a 78 series same problem he had 60psi in airbags and overloaded to the max thought it was great getting air over the dunes. Every one of these come in same thing over loaded every type of ute
Absolute legends who know their stuff……
You can fix a truck buy you can't fix stupid and there seems to be a lot of idiots driving around in the outback ?
Only two weeks, I am quite sure you could spend the rest of your lives in that workshop. Off road vehicles are a different challenge to on highway vehicles. Safe travels.
IT MUST BE NICE WHEN THE ONLY PARTS YOU NEED TO STOCK ARE LANDCRUISER PARTS ?
Yeah man how many Land rovers do you see catching ♉🐂♉🐂 we only ever used Toyota's catching ♉ 🐂 ♉ ♉ 🐂 🐂 ♉ buddy❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊😊😮
new sub.. i love watching the girls that know their shit!!
Just found the channel and love it. You pair make an awesome team.
Great video guys. Love the flow between offroading, overlanding and nature shots. Greetings from Senegal
Thanks for a good honest review of the not so fun times traveling, i laughed so much and i almost cried laughing at the diesel heater, not due to your miss fortunes but i can relate so much to almost all them experiences, and you are 100% right at the time things feel like they cant get any worse! But as time passes you look back and laugh, 6 years on from our trip(wife 3 kids and i) something will trigger our memory and we will make a little one liner joke that takes us back! 😂😂
I just found this channel randomly. Absolutely enjoyed this video. Fascinating content.
Is that damage caused by just 4X4's ?
No, the damage gets created by the tremendous wet season every year.
why the hell are people in the middle of no where getting brakes sorted...
Interested to find out what size tyres are you running?
287/75R16 on a pos 20 steel rim
And you guys had all these parts on the shelf in Mt Dare . .
Nope, like we said in the video they were picked up by plane from Alice Springs. Only the land cruiser parts in stock 👍🏻
Loved the cameo of the bloke with the shovel and a roll of bog paper.
If you dip the oil on my 1HDFTE after it has been going it will be off the stick. Check it tomorrow before you start it, it is perfect. It doesn’t use oil, never has in its 300,000 km, 10 litres comes out of it every time. The bloke who broke his chassis found out the hard way that airbags are not designed to overcome overloading. The springs were probably perfect because they had no weight on them. I would never blow an air filter out, you are very likely to blow a hole in it. A diesel will start to run hot when the filter is getting clogged. Good show, you got a lot of people out of trouble in a very remote location. Jeff.
Hi top work guys , Awesome videos gave me a good eye on what really goes on out in the bush.stay safe all the best
On average a car will use 1Ltr of oil between services.
factory Landcruiser rim, 8 inches
NFI Auto's Don't take the piss out of Quaulied Mechanics.
Your both Disgusting, smh Don't make a damn video If your gonna make a video with your Brother, that is not allowed, Losers..
🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🧡🧡🙋🙋
like it guys, down to earth and educational 👍
Really great and interesting video, thanks for sharing 👍
Good job guys and good luck
Most common thing I noticed in this video... Only much newer vehicles all breaking. Not seeing strong 1980-1990 4x4s there. Cars arent built like they used to be. Cruisers in Australia are massively overpriced, I work in a mine and they buy them for $36,000 from Dubai. Literal only difference is left hand drive. So Aussies overpay close to $60,000 on cruisers
Cool ep and lovely work Guys. I am a self tort Mechanic of 45 years working on my own 4wds and others 4wd and farm gear. I found Toyotas are as good as any 4wd it's the people driving them that's the trouble no mechanical sympathy.
You two work as a great team and help people mechanical problems in the out back.Great video hop to see some mor real soon.💪💪💪
Loved watching both of you working like troopers, well, that's just a bloody stupid saying. Working like legends more like it. Learnt a bit too. Happy travels.
Great job guy's, both legend's!
Airofail strikes again fucking hate them go buy an actually good brand of cooler and don't use their an fittings use speed flow there Australian made and are good never had an issue with proflow but always with airofail
All it needs is a bit of force …That’s what she said … literally 😂
