Spotted in Sydney: L plater in 1970's(?) Land Rover Series

This one made me smile yesterday.

Driving along Liverpool road near Burwood, trying to sort out what car to get my wife. I spotted an old Land Rover on the other side of the road and pointed it out to her, and she said she wouldn't drive one.

As the car got closer I noticed it had L plates on it... and the driver was female!

My wife had nothing further to say on the matter... :angel:

Not sure what year this one was but looked pre defender badges and in very good condition.

Took me back to my L plate days in a column shift Kingswood station wagon without power steering - If you can learn on one of those you can drive pretty much any car! :D

I spent a lot of time driving the families Veteran cars on my L's, crash box, no power steering, two wheel brakes, no seatbelts and hand signals to top it off!!

Taught me a lot about driving and especially respect for machinery, now I can hop into absolutely anything and throw it through the gears! :D

It's good to see other young people who are into cars and actively involved.

Cheers
