Shite from Gaydon

[RustbucketP6]

I sure you are probably all very familiar with the shite at the Gaydon Heritage Centre – but here it is again for the few people who might not be familiar.

 

The first Carina E off the line – and the only Jap on show

 

 

The legendary TR7 estate – the Lynx

 

 

 

 

Famous Maxi

 

 

One of the first Metros

 

 

 

Last Montego off the line

 

 

Some sort of Rover estate – the forerunner to the Range Rover

 

 

 

Rover SD1 estate – if only!

 

 

Interactive shite Top Trumps

 

 

Viva HC

 

 

How many Wolseley wedges are left?

Love the facial expression of that Wolseley!

Wonderful..something in my OLD grey matter says the Roverish grey estate was 4 wheel drive of the Ferguson type . The headlight surrounds look like Aussie Morris Major items mounted upside down !P.S. The words" If Only" are well known in B L circles.

Not been to Gaydon in years. So that Carina E was a bit of a surprise!Must persuade Mrs L that it would be a nice day out perhaps!

There's a lovely old Ferguson 4x4 R5 wagon in the Coventry Transport museum - predates the range rover by some 8 years. The styling and concept is well ahead of its time.

That grey Rover thing looks like it was put together by Picasso

[Dead_E23]

It's a Road Rover (about a third of the way down the page).

Several Midlands groups of 2CVGB are meeting at Gaydon on 'Drive It Day' (April 20) - should be a good day out

A friend of mine has a Morris badged Wedge.... owned it since day 1, and never been off the road. Used every day as a commuter. KUG949N I think..........Top bloke too, has an ARROOOOOOOGAAAAAHHH!!!!! horn in it as well......

I think the Viva belongs to the Vauxhall Heritage Centre. Must be on loan.Regarding Jap cars, don't they also have the first Bluebird from Sunderland too?Good to see the Monty's back inside now as well. Any cars still in the compounds outside??
