Welcome!
The Sunshine Coast Land Rover Owners Club was established in 1988 by a group of Land Rover enthusiasts and was incorporated soon after. It provides opportunities for members to go camping and on day trips with others with similar interests. We became an incorporated club in 1989.
A Weekend Well Spent at Manar Park.
What a fantastic weekend we had at Manar Park! With perfect weather, great company, and some exciting 4WD tracks, it was the ideal getaway for anyone who loves the outdoors. The park offered something for everyone—from thrilling trails to relaxed campsites and everything in between.
Whether you’re an experienced off-roader or just looking to unwind, Manar Park is the place to be. There were plenty of easy tracks for those new to 4WDing, and for those who preferred to take it slow, jumping in with others was always an option. In fact, some decided to hang back at camp and enjoy some well-earned relaxation and social time—proof that you don’t have to hit the tracks to have a great time.
Evenings were spent around the fire, sharing stories and laughs, and enjoying the kind of connection you can only get when you’re off the grid. If you’re after a mix of adventure, good company, and chill camping vibes, definitely add Manar Park to your list.

TRIP REPORT: PINE CREEK
Last weekend, the Sunshine Coast Land Rover Owners Club explored Pine Creek, south of Bundaberg. Trav led in the Ironing Board (D2), while I took tail-end Charlie in Pegasus (P38). Joining us were Steve in his trusty 130 Defender, John in his Series (yes, his tires got wet!), and Ian and Helen in their Isuzu.
We met at Pine Creek Community Hall at 9:30 AM before tackling the tracks. A quick stop was needed to straighten John’s steering arm before we continued through challenging sections toward the river. Lunch was a relaxing break, with my kids (and Ian) enjoying a swim.
That night, Trav, Ian, Helen, and I had a great meal at the White Lion Pub, while John and Steve enjoyed drinks at camp.
Sunday started at 9 AM on the fence line track near Maryborough, featuring technical sections and go-arounds. As usual, I got stuck (time for a locker or two—LOL), requiring John tp winch me. More fun followed with John winching out of mud and me popping a tire off the bead. Thanks to Trav, John, and Steve for the assist.
Trav got bogged in a deep section, needing John’s recovery skills again. By mid-afternoon, we reinflated our tires and headed home while others continued toward Cooloola Way.
A fantastic weekend of 4WDing and camaraderie—can’t wait for the next trip!
