Title: Robert Bateman's Land Rover
Post by: northerndefender on October 15, 2016, 11:00 PM
I am sure most know about this already but it was new to me. Robert Bateman and a friend took a Pilcher bodied series 1957 land rover for a very long drive.

Here is a talk by Robert about the trip.




Cheers
