Land Rover Monthly

Where is it now?

-

LGN 952K – a Series III LWB station wagon with safari padding – was a year old when it was bought by my parents, who kept it for about 25 to 30 years. They took a family of six of us camping across Europe every summer, getting as far as Morocco and Greece. In the spring it transporte­d many beehives across Kent and Sussex for pollinatin­g apple orchards, including one hive that fell open in the back while driving along Tunbridge Wells High Street – you couldn’t see out of the back window for the swarm of bees crawling up it.

I think it’s still going strong. DVLA shows it as being green (it was a sandy colour when we had it) and re-taxed in August this year. I attach a photo, taken in Spain in the 1970s.
