If you crop out the bumper of the modern on the right-hand side, you'll have one of the coolest photographs on this thread.Spotted a while back now, but not posted at the time...
...in the car park at Clandon Park (National Trust) as we left at the end of the day. Good opportunity to grab a picture with very little modern clutter in the background. Loving the "engine being run in, please pass" sign in the rear window too. I can't remember when I last saw one of those.

This pic'n'mix LandRover can't seem to make up it's mind which Series it wants to be, nor what colour it wants to end up...
...1968 Series IIA out of the factory, but more modern (Series III?)wings added. Registered as a 2,500cc diesel too {engine introduced in the Defender in 1984 (NA) or 1986 (TD)}, but still taking advantage of age exemption from VED. Still. At least it's off road eh?
(Or is it one for the Bad Parking thread?)

I recently visited the National Memorial Arboretum near Lichfield.

...1970 3.5 litre Rover P5B Coupe was in the car park and looking generally fabulous. First registered the day before I was born.

When I was involved with the AMOC the President was the Viscount Downe who had a seat in the House of Lords and owned great swathes of Yorkshire. He advised keeping ones love of desirable cars away from business and so instead of arriving at meetings in an Aston always used a Rover. He believed a Rover made no statement beyond good judgement and reliability. I presume this sound advice ended around the time of the SD1.
