This Land Rover was bought from a dealer at Selmeston, East Sussex, for £900 after it had returned from making a a safari while shooting a documentary film. The long wheelbase truck had a 2.4 litre petrol engine.
Even with freewheel hubs it was a thirsty beast and once got stuck in Robins Post Lane while off-roading on waterlogged clay paths - eventually freed by rocking and going faster. Great fun to own and a reliable workhorse with a starting handle for those occasions when the battery lets you down. The resale value of these classics is so good the then owner made a profit, selling it for £1,100 after some years use.
