Competition Winner: A Happy Lad And His Landy

We’re delighted to see that our 1964 Land Rover Series IIA was delivered to Ian in Devon this morning and he’s already told us he’s named it Toby.

Ian bough just a single ticket and as luck would have it, that was the winning one!

“Received this morning bright and early. Fantastic service and so chuffed to have won this, being a big Landyphile. Already been out for its first spin around the lanes. Toby is going to be loved and fettled in his new forever home and will meet his sister Mabel, the Series 1 once she back up and running” Ian tells us. “Toby is derived for 70B (TOB) as per registration plate.”

1976 VW Westfalia T2 Bay Campervan Arrival

This stunning ray of sunshine is our new 1976 VW Westfalia T2 Bay Campervan that just arrived today, in perfect timing for the upcoming stay-cation summer! We’ve got a few bits to do on it to neaten it up but otherwise its almost ready to go! Keep your eyes peeled to see what’s going to happen to this little yellow camper…

Here’s some lovely photos from the previous owner of them enjoying camping in it and even using it as a vehicle for both their son’s weddings.

Double Jensen Send-Off

Our beloved 1957 Jensen 541RS and 1960 Jensen 541R have been collected by Russell’s and sent back to Germany to be reunited with their owner. Russel’s double story lorry came to collect the two Jensen’s and inside had a Jensen Interceptor, also belonging to the same owner. The double story lorry is an epic contraption in itself, with raising levels and ramps to make for easier loading.

After 3 long years of dedicated restoration, we’re both happy and sad to see these two cars leave us after they arrived looking totally different. We’re excited to see them as finished cars, ready to be loved and enjoyed as classic spectacles of British engineering.
