November 2009

 

 

We are often asked "where do we buy our Land Rovers from?" and "Who buys our Land Rovers?" - so below are some monthly highlights.

Please feel free to bookmark this page and come back from time to time to see what we are up to and what is "new"

Sunday 1st November

A busy weekend - with 2 unusual additions -

Firstly a trip to Derbyshire for a "proper" barn find - "399 R" - a 1962 series IIA that has actually been stored in a barn unused since 1992. It will take quite a bit of restoration, but will be worthwhile, with the added bonus of a very nice "Old School" registration.
