A trek across the Nullarbor using Subaru Outbacks and Jayco caravans is featured in a three-part series in the August, September and October editions of Caravan and Motorhome magazine.

Editor Gil Schott and correspondent John Rooth headed the first in a series of Classic Australian Journeys that Caravan and Motorhome is planning.

They undertook the demanding journey to make a DVD that is available via the magazine.

Rooth wrote: "….in case you’re wondering, the all-wheel drive 3L flat six proved absolutely superb in both roles - as a medium-weight towing vehicle and a camera car, too.

"I had my doubts about that before we set off. I mean, for a trip this long, and with both vans weighing a tonne and a third dry, I’d have opted for something from the usual arsenal of big, 4WD, heavy-duty tow vehicles.

"The trip proved that premise entirely wrong. If a vehicle has the right combination of power and traction, and the Subarus definitely have plenty of both, then more size is just an inconvenience if anything. And boy, the comfort level is unreal!"

Leg one took in Adelaide to Ceduna via Port Lincoln.

The current September edition of the magazine covers Ceduna to Norseman, while October’s final instalment reports on the trek to Esperance and Perth.

For full details of the final leg see the October edition of Caravan and Motorhome, out soon.
