I presume that is where the Dunsfold Land Rover Museum is too. <<insert envious smiley here>> Lucky dakar!

The airfield is owned and operated by an Aeronautics University.

The Dunsfold Collection doesn't have a museum. The collection vehicles are stored in various barns and sheds around the area. Viewing is by arrangement only. Every two years or so we get most of them out and show them off at a weekend event.
Recently a large hanger came up for sale at the airfield. Perfect for housing and showing the collection. We had a whipround but were just a 'few' bob short of the million quid they wanted for it
Roll on that lottery win

Hey Banj, the owner of a leaf sprung Landrover warming up to a .............



















FREELANDER!!!GASP!! Choke!! COUGH!!

Yeah I like freelanders too. I once had a Subaru Brumby and it was an awesome machine - much more capable than many would think. Drove mine to cape york (on the telegraph track) way back in 1986. Didn't miss a beat - until I drowned it in the Wenlock and put the plug leads back on the wrong way. Always thought a freelander would be good fun too - along the same lines as the Brumby. You can get 'em pretty cheap 2nd hand - yeah they have a few weak points - but what doesn't. I always liked the little 2 door soft tops.
