Isuzu I-Venture Club on Moreton Island - Practical Motoring (blog)

Isuzu launched its I-Venture club for Isuzu 4WD owners and our Jane Speechley headed to Moreton Island to get a taste of what club members can expect. This early warning delivered by David Wilson, 4WD expert and licensed driving instructor of some 21 years’ experience, should be no surprise given he’s clearly not from the school of four-wheel-drives-that-never-actually-leave-the-road. It is, however, a clear indication that I’m learning from folks who are serious about their sport, and that my first four-wheel-driving experience may not be an easy Sunday drive. We’re with the Isuzu I-Venture Club and we’ve just left the Port of Brisbane on the MICAT ferry , for the 75 minute journey to Moreton Island. It has a fully-stocked café and is fully licensed, though of course, we pass on the drinks until after the drive. Our destination, Moreton Island , is the third largest sand island in the world and home to the famous Tangalooma Resort, where visitors can hand-feed the wild dolphins that visit the beach. In our group of a dozen or so, experience levels vary enormously – there are several first-timers like me, as well as some who have a little experience in off-road driving.
