THE LAND ROVER REGISTER 1948-1953

Welcome to all those who arrive at this page from Andrew Bullas, the Secretary of the Club.

I would draw everybody's attention to the fact that the club was, until very recently known, as the Land-Rover Register 1947-1951. This stemmed from the club originally being formed to find out solely about the Pre-Production vehicles, which were believed to have been produced in the 1947 model year. It was then extended to cover the first 1500 production vehicles and then to cover all the 1595cc engined vehicles produced up until the start of the 1952-model year (and also includes the Rolls-Royce B40 engined 81" military prototypes).

Over the years there have been a number of people who haven't really understood why the club didn't cover the whole 80" vehicle range, so the recent name change does that. Basically if you have an 80" wheelbase Land-Rover then we are the club for you.

I hope the information contained within these few pages will be of some benefit and in any event will lead you to us directly, either by E-Mail or snail mail if you wish.

The club rules state we exist to "further an interest in, and provide members with information, advice and assistance on matters connected with early Land-Rovers".

The club is always interested to hear about any 80" Land-Rovers, even if you choose not to become a member we would still like to know any details of your vehicles to add to our database.
