As well as our 'normal
family car', we have two Land Rovers and two motorcycles
We
have owned Land Rovers since 1973.
This is a bit of our history:

| 1973 - 1983 |

Series
1 80" |
This was Ian's first vehicle,
which he got when he was 16 as a 'non-runner'. It
took him through learning to drive, then through
University. It was a 1952 80" - a real
original! He bought it for £45 from the far
north of Scotland, and his poor parents had to
trailer it down - a long story that he will be
happy to recount if you ask. There are a few
more pics of the Land
Rover Series 1 here, although not many exist!
|
| 1993 - 2005 |
|
Discovery |
We got this new, and ran it until
Land Rover could not supply spare parts for it
any more. Only ten years - but Land Rover were
going through a rather bad period at that time -
they were owned by BMW and then Ford at the time,
who really didn't understand that people might
want to keep their vehicles beyond a few years! |

This is Lois on her bike.
This is the one that she travels to
Newcastle on each day.
You can also have a look at her
previous bike (a CB500) here.
