Is that a 2.6L or 3.0L 6???

The book said it was fitted with a "high powered" 6, so I always thought it was a holden or valiant...

From memory its a rover 6 cylinder out of a car?

Just did a web search and came up with this site for all the Leyland fans out there

About the same time the first west east crossing following the tropic was also made. There was a film about it so that too may also turn up.

Difference was it was a Leyland promotion effort and they drove a Mini. From a distant memory think it was Evan Green and someone with a Polish sounding name.

That has made a faint bell ring!

I think the person with the Polish sounding name may be the one who started the solar vehicle challenge (starting in Darwin), among many other 'adventures'. I can't think of his name at this moment (I haven't heard it mentioned for a long time).

Could it be Hans Torlstrup or similar? As I said, just a faint bell ringing!
