The December issue of Overlander 4x4 is out now, packed with off-road adventure, inspiration and engineering ingenuity.

We shine a light on the Tomcat that sparked Britain’s winch-buggy craze, take a deep dive into a V8-powered "Hardcore Hilux" that’s far more refined than it looks, and meet the self-proclaimed "cabbage mechanic" behind a wild bobtail Disco trayback build.

There’s a pint-fuelled eBay purchase that turned into a V8 Series III Land Rover success story, plus a dramatic trip through Namibia where a lifelong Land Rover driver faces an elephant charge from behind the wheel of a Toyota Land Cruiser.

Our green-lane Roadbooks return with a new Thetford route, while in Tested we get behind the wheel of Kia’s impressive new EV3 and the high-spec KGM Actyon.

We’ve got the latest news too - from ARB’s 50th-anniversary D-Max expedition to Morocco to Twisted’s official US launch, and practical product picks including the simple fix for in-car condensation this winter.
