someone is converting a 1949 Land Rover to electric to set a land speed record, and it's got center steering!

 

I just love this, the sign on the door says "Camel Trophy, Adventure Travels" if I remember correct

I just looked it up, you can buy the sticker set for about 75 bucks https://www.starsamstickers.com/en/car-stickers/5106-camel-trophy-adventure-travels-sticker-set.html

over all it looks strange to me, but they did the tire cover right to match the tailgate.

impressive advertising/marketing video for Range Rover, the Spillway Challenge

the short version has a lot of flashbacks so, just skip to the last 12 seconds if you want the cool part

every two years the Range Rover Sport undertakes an impossible challenge in an unforgiving place.

while watching Clarkson's Farm season 3, I learned that in 1962 there was an attempt to get hover craft Land Rovers... the "Hover Rover"

created by Hovercraft makers Vickers, the hover skirt was proposed as an aftermarket conversion which could be fitted to “any vehicle”

the first Land Rover off the production line

what do you figure this license plate means?

 I don't have a guess

it's a good trick to get the Land Rover back on it's wheels when you have nothing to lift or lever with. Long walk back to where you last got gas, and no trees to escape the direct sun on that long walk

I think it's great that you can put almost anything on a license plate

license plates seen this week

 

Seen on today's walk

this is the first cool Nova I've come across without a car cover

 

why the hell this 735 BMW is on the street is a mystery, I seriously doubt anyone is going to fix it, and why spend the money to make it nicer? Instead of using that same amount to buy a nicer car? I don't get it

Woman learning to drive plowed her Range Rover through 8 headstones at cemetery near Boston

The driver, a 53-year-old Melrose woman, was learning to drive but lost control, the release said. She had a learner’s permit and a relative, who has a license, was riding along with her. 

Neither was hurt, but multiple graves were damaged and at least eight headstones were knocked down, police said.

some interesting vehicles found on tonight's walkabout, but what I can't figure out, is why among these million dollar homes, are so many dirt cheap trucks and cars

 

been sitting there since 2007, just getting rustier

interesting trailer

I kid you not, there are about 4 Airstreams in about 6 blocks... this little area has more that anyone where else I've walked so far, and they also have plenty of other kids of RVs

this Jeep is really neglected... just sad to see the paint is a mess. At least they put a cover over it

the former editor of Car and Driver just wrote an article about the 1993 Camel Trophy, Land Rover and Camel-brand cigarettes paid for everything, costing them millions every year.
