We are often asked "where do we buy our Land Rovers from?" and "Who buys our Land Rovers?" - so below are some of our 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" |
YBT 502R is a Series III Land Rover that we exported to Colorado back in 2002 for a customer. He has now moved to Calgary, Canada - along with the Land Rover of course - and has sent us a picture taken on a recent trip out to the "Badlands".
We are glad to hear the Land Rover is still giving good service Dave !
