You guys are the best👏🏻👏🏻 thank you very much for all the great information.
Thanks for the kind words.
Adam & Megan, we came across your YT planning recently for a Fraser trip later in the year, and have been binge watching them as a family the last couple of weeks. Have to say fantastic job, editing, background music & content are great while being down to earth👌. We are looking for a van to do a big lap (as doing it in our Patriot X1 just isn’t appealing) & you’ve almost convinced us on a Titanium hardcore for our family. And Adam your opinions on the landcruiser 70 series are spot on, I’ve worked 25 years in the resources sector before taking up a job with a conservation NGO to manage a station in outback SA- done over a million & half Kay’s in the bloody things & owned 5 cruisers myself (including a HJ47) Every station were I live has 2-3 of them & I can go into Broken hill & get shocks, brake pads etc straight of the shelf & every mechanic in town has worked on one. Yep they have lots of short comings & overpriced but there are heaps of options out there for anyone who doesn’t want one. Keep up the good work, look forward to more vids & you guys definitely aren’t the YT wankers (there’s plenty of them😂)
Thanks heaps for taking the time to write such kind words and good luck on your adventures.
Great Review Guys, Ive just completed a 4 month shakedown 15,000km outback trip in my 490 and its been awesome, I'm up at Conqueror Brisbane atm getting some minor repairs done , then i'm off again for another 12months , Victoria Highlands is where my next adventure starts , plus a quick trip through the outback again on my way down.
That’s great to hear mate, they are an awesome camper we are really enjoying it. Can’t wait to get away properly ourselves.
رحله موفقه نورتنا اتمنى لك التوفيق والنجاح انتم أشخاص رائعون ونتابعكم من الوطن العربي تحياتي لكم جميعا من بغداد العراق اخوكم ابو محمد ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Excited about that new roof material
Great vid guys.
Thanks for tuning in.
Hot plates and camp ovens just throw into the fire and fill or cover with hot coals after use and the fire cleans them. Rinse off.
Cool Ep guys and awesome van
Great review and a great little camper. Looking forward to a trip in it. Kudos to Conqueror to support a small channel like yours. Cheers
Much appreciated!
Thank god they upgraded the roof. That was a huge pain when the sun came out.
great point with inverters i have no idea why people "need" inverters these days you can charge and operate everything you need from 12V, i guess a coffee machine or microwave....but then really????? are you actually "camping" or living like at home in the bush...great review, probably the best out there on the 490. im still on the fence about buying one, but it does seem they have addressed quite a few issues with earlier versions (composite roof now to reduce heat soak etc)
Nice setup bro, the doors both sides is a ripper, damn good idea.
Love the video.
Thank you!
Another great vid, thank you ❤
Assume a Webber would fit in the AC/potty box too?
Yeah I’m sure you could get a Weber.
Unused bbq plates look out of place on the back of a well used 490. The plate is a decent stainless so will clean up ok. Can't wait to see it in use.
Ha ha definitely 👍🏼 stay tuned
Best video of the 390🎉 Love your other trip videos with it a lot.
How can I get one in Europe?
Price in Euros is 52,000, to this spec + diesel heater, european legal brake controller, hitch and legal electric brakes (only ones currently) but minus redarc as that would be an extra. I have just started to import these to the UK. I am just working on all the remaining european certifications to make these legal across Europe. If you would like to see one in the flesh Ill be showcasting at most land rover and overland shows in UK as well as a few this summer in france / netherlands / germany.
Awesome Mike! Please let me know where I could contact you to see one in person in the U.K and order one. Thank you.
Just wondering could you please show a picture of what the interior looks like with the front bed not made up, can you use that area for seat if just a couples camper. Thanks Geoff
Hi Geoff. No sorry mate you cannot use the front bed area as a bench when not set up, you can however use the rear section as seating though.
Nice review. I hope they go full RedArc soon. Any roof options?
Thanks for watching. Yeah the Redarc gear is awesome, and the guys at Conqueror have plans to go full Redarc in the future as we have been also giving them this feedback. Sorry mate but what do you mean with roof options.
@@SmartTouringSystems ya should wrote it better -- accessories for the roof? Solar/AC/rack/moonroof? lol
Yeah no dramas, we should have made the walk through better😂
The latest UEV-490 has a composite panel roof, 200w solar and a skylight.
does the awning (which are great idea being predominantly pole free) pool water? they look like they sag a fair bit in the middle? most awnings do but does it have tie off points in the middle sections so you can peg out the pooling spots?
Yeah mate it does pool water a little, if let loose so the middle sags down the water runs off.
Mate, what happened to the uev14? Cheers for review
Yeah mate we still have it. We will use it for longer trips.
Whats your favorite? 490 or 14, if you could only have one.
@@SamanthaHAgastin hi, 490
However with my partner the 14
👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷
Which do you prefer te UEV-490 490 or UEV 14 and why ?
That’s a hard one to answer. The 490 is awesome to tow, great for the harder to reach places and the feel of camping more is nice.
The 14 however would be easier to live with on longer journeys and more touring style trips, where you are stopping nearly every night.
This was a commercial haha!
It's a review🤦♂️
Agree it's a shame i use to enjoy watching his movies.
and no dunny
