[Wanted] A Classic...
Sold my Series One 86" some years ago, but should have kept it.

Fancy another old Land Rover / Range Rover Classic.

So if anyone is selling one of the following please PM with details;

1949-1953 - 80"

1954-56 - 86"

Pre-1981 2 door Range Rover Classic.

I am aware of what's for sale as I regularly look since First Lockdown, on most of the normal sales platforms. Missed a few, not been quick enough.

Using Practical Classics as a guide. Minimum condition that I'd be interested in, would be Condition 1.

Agree. Do not sell your lovely S1 88.

Everyone has a favourite.

I have too many, but have room for just one more, just need to narrow it down...hence my choices.

Is that the Wellington Monument that you can see from the M5?

Correct, well done! It's the monument in Eastnor Park, and the photo was taken in February 1983 on the day that the Central TV documentary "The Extraordinary Terrestrial", made to mark the launch of the 110, was filmed.

The documentary is available on the Tube of You:

Cherhill has a bigger square "plinth" around the bottom you can climb onto.

Got a pic of my 90 next to it somewhere from years back when the byway went past it.
