How Much Did Our DIY Defender Camper Build Cost? Cost Breakdown For Building an Overlander.

We've always dreamed of owning and overlander and exploring the paths less travelled. So, after buying a stock standard Land Rover Defender we have spent the last 7 weeks converting it into our dream overland camper and putting it to the test! Today we share how much that dream has cost us! In this episode we go through a break down of the costs for building the vehicle and share our tips for saving money on camper builds. We have the full spreadsheet detailing every cost so if anyone would like a copy, we will happily send it to you, just pop us an email to: [email protected] (sorry its way too long for the desciption!).
