    Look what I found

    packing away our models I picked up one particular model (Matchbox defender 90) and said to Ian look at this model it looks like an SVX its got the funny looking grill how funny.

    low and behold we turned it over and on the bottom it says
    "Land rover SVX".

    Now you would think yeah so what so you have a model of the SVX....how ever this model was made in 2003....so was the SVX a concept for that long? it even has what looks like the bucket type Recaro seats

    Ian has had this model for years and we have only just noticed..

    Pics







    So perhaps we were the first in Australia to own one ..this one however has been reliable the whole time we have had it
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......

    you guys have a short memory. Back at the detroit? motorshow in 02-03 landrover made a concept SVX. It was a short black 90 with a chunky cage and really big wheels (20"? mabe bigger) and chunky mud tyres. I think it also had a hidden winch.
