The Geneva Motor Show, 06-16 March 2014... With 10 days to go, preparations are in full swing as you can see...
Anybody here planning to visit? We should be having the launch of the Defender Black Pack and the Silver Pack there this time, so expect at least 2 Defenders on display. I bet that it is going to be the same as always here, a few people looking at each of the D4, RRS, FFRR, Eewoks, but a real line, sometimes almost a gentle fight, to sit in the Defenders. 
There also will be Defenders by some of the UK tuners, as well as by Startech. 
The tickets from my local dealer should be in the mail by now.

Not at all, but these pictures of the preparation were published today as a teaser.

Keith, you are referring to Swiss chocolate for your birthday?
How about this one here as a more readily available alternative?

Oops, sorry, but not really a camping specialist myself.
Maybe someone else here has more ready made suggestions for that....???? Eric You never actually own a Defender.

Free tickets for the Car Show here in Switzerland are offered by certain car main dealers to their customers. My Geneva Land Rover dealer where I bought my Defender every year offers all their clients the option of 1 or 2 free tickets.... I asked 4 tickets this year
, and look what arrived by mail from them today..... Tickets are good for one day of our choice, plus discounted rail transport to/from Geneva that day from anywhere in Switzerland, plus free public transport for all of Geneva on the day of the visit.
