cheers
They did this about 15 years ago in the Uk. All companies in the Uk with land rover or rover in their name or using a copy or logo that look like land rover had to change their names. One of the biggest compaies effected was rapid rovers , does not mean alot to you lot but they built Brain Adams ( signer ) 100 inch hybrid VOD. They had to change their name
There was a bit of a fight because at first they also wanted to stop clubs using the logo and name. But they backed down in the end on that. I ran a large south uk land rover club at the time and was in the middle of the up roar and fight over it
