Hi all,
I've seen lots of older posts about Grenville Motors records but it looks like these are hard to tap into now.

I've just got the British Motor Museum cert back for my 86inch and whilst it didn't really have any addition info, it did confirm mine was shipped to Grenville for assembly.
Is there anyone that has access to the records that could look up the chassis number? Or point me to an online copy?

Chassis is 177600281
It was manufactured on 11th October 1955 so I'm guessing didn't get over here until early 1956.

Thanks for any help

Diana from Land Rover Owners Club (I think she is the historic registration secretary) has the records. She used to be a member here but bowed out a few years ago, and I don’t want to violate her privacy by passing on any details. If you contact the club you should be able to get to her through them…

Use email rego@lroc.com.au to contact the Land Rover Owners Club of Australia (Sydney Branch) and you should be able to reach Diana.
