E-mailed Shaun Whale, Deputy Publisher [ leisure], 4wd action mag., for permission to place photos on
AULRO site. Permission was given, as long as I credited the mag [fair enough].I mentioned the lack of L.R. articles, his reply was
"A word on the Land Rover shortage. It's not that we dont want to run them, it's just that we struggle to find modified ones to run in our magazines . I think it's hard to beat the looks of a modified Defender[ or Disco for that matter] and I'm sure you'll agree! It's just a matter of finding them, I'm sure there are a few out there ".
Considering the mag. seems heavily dependant on ARB, TJM, for ads. etc. I suppose I can understand the need for modified vehicles. I was tempted to say the average off the floor L.R. will match it with most of the modified Toyotas and Nissans , but thought better of it!

I guess the ball is in our court if we want to raise the profile of L.R. in the mag. Bob
