After 3 months wait I finally got to see her for real. Unbelievable how clean the underside is. No bubbling to paint even on 2 piece door and still on original tyres with spare never been on.


Really nice and can't wait till it's finished in a lovely coat of Atlantis Blue Whistle

Not being an expert, could you please advise me the differemce between this & a UK 50th?
Some pics of interior & engine bay would be good. How many miles/ks has she done?
Nothing like a V8, Pickles.

Gone through MOT today with no great drama Very Happy Needed a fog light bulb and a couple of advisories.
Replaced windscreen rubber this morning and cleaned interior.

Fitted period Land Rover Hella Rallye 1000 together with a period radio cassette. All wired up and working. Bought a job lot of cassettes off ebay to play. Just had to explain to my son how we had to fast forward and rewind tapes back in the day Laughing It has got the luxury of auto reverse though!

I love it!

I have always preferred the non-uk 50th anniversary models as they are lower key without boilerplate and white is my favorite colour too.

All the best!

The last photo of my two V8's together. The old csw has now left to go to a new owner. I'm hoping she is going to be exported to an enthusiast within the EU
