You haven't made is clear if this is a real expedition or if the landcruiser is just being shipped in a container? There are perfectly good roads across the US to Alaska, then it is perfectly possible to cross the Bearing Straits and across Russia, Eastern Europe, Germany, France, Spain, Morocco and down. All perfectly possible. Visa's arn't that much of a problem on this route either.

Here is your route; Google Maps

Go on you know it makes sense! (And what landcruiser are built for)
Haha, no, they have a company who is shipping it over very inexpensively in a container... Thanks for the advice!
