What a fantastic day out at the JLR Classic Works, joining the National Land Rover Meets meet. Over 200 Land Rovers with plenty of new and old faces to chat with.
Mainly Defenders on display but I also enjoyed the occasionally Hippo (Freelander) spotting along with some nicely kitted out Discovery 4’s.
The workshop itself is where both old Jaguars and Land Rovers are restored and rebuilt for customers. What a place to work and build from with surgical levels of cleanliness and amble space to stripe down and build.
I spent the weekend heading up with BORIS THE DEFENDER and , finding a lovely Off Grid Camp for Saturday night. Not originally planned in the slightest but we ended up being a few minutes away from Caffeine&Machine, so we headed there for dinner. Very cool place and great to have hubs like this for car culture.
Great to chat with those of you I met and here’s to next years 3rd birthday of Tea on the Tailgate.
