I am in a fairly remote part of the world and we get few visitors. Anyhow sitting at the Club Bar chatting to a visitor (supplier) i picked up on a theme in his conversation, it was Xtreme from this forum :o
The next day another visitor, driving a Defender 110 Keswick green ;), rocked up as the sponsor of our dart comp.
He told the story he was an ex Rover employee and assembled LR in Lae, PNG in the 70's . He also stated, he had been talking to his mates still working there and Defender production has been extended to April to fill some large back orders.
The other tit bit was the story of how the Mini Moke production line was on the wharf waiting to be sent to PNG and the Govt introduced a export tax, and the whole business got closed down instead.
So when someone produces a picture of the Solihul line disassembled i will believe the last one is made.
