 This is one of the more interesting 110s I have seen. This owner has no qualms about making a statement, ehh?

Actually I think he is about to have a bunch more Safarigard modifications done to the Rover. Watch for it in Eastern PA. I am sure you can't miss it!

 This is the same NADA Defender 110, about one Limestone paint job, and three gearboxes later. This Rover has been everywhere! It belongs to one Jamie Eisman, who has redefined the term "living large". If you see him, he'll have some harrowing tales of his journeys in Africa, and South America, while behind the wheel of various Rover products. Our hats are off to you Jamie, wherever you are!
Da dum, da dum..... The Pink Panther The SAS Pink Panther. Developed for the British SAS. No, they didn't wear Fredericks of Hollywood to match their pretty Rover. They were the best of the best, Sir! Pink was found to be a good camoflage color in desert conditions. Based on a LWB, and built by Marshalls of Cambridge. Only about sixty were made.
This Forward Control 101 survived Judge Dredd better than Stallone.True Roverphiles know that the Judge Dredd Citycabs were based on Forward Control 101 chassis. Ever wonder what happened to them after filming? Of the twenty or so that were built, only one was an actual runner. It is in the British Motoring Heritage Museum in Gaydon. The rest are used for promotional purposes, or, in this case, just sit in a back field. The bulk of the prop trucks were fabricated by Phil Bashall at Dunsfold. Won't repeat his comments about the film itself...
Aqui esta Der Deutsche Rover.The Tempo- - built in Germany in the early fifties under license from Land Rover U.K. Made of steel instead of aluminum. Very rare, the particular one is in the Dunsfold Collection in West Sussex, England.
 Could the Brits finally be into the all American sport of car crushing? This scary softtop AA Yellow Rangie with 38?" tractor tires is quite the site!I guess that's one way to fit 2 cars in the garage, this should fit OVER a mini.
 Another weird Range Rover conversion, this one's a little bit more upscale. A nice job on the conversion, but not really my cup of tea. I doubt Tom Thumb could fit in the back seat, looks a little cramped.

 English Sheep....Rover?
This Rangie was spotted on a recent trip and was deluged by sheep. The sheep were being driven by a D90, the englishman's workhorse. Ewe only have to step on the throttle to get out of this wolly situation. I'm sorry, that was so
ba-a-a-a-a-ad.

 Sent in by Dwain Adams:
I've included a pick of my 97 4.6 HSE rover that is painted just like a
zebra. I didn't have it painted like this. The original owner had some exoctic
animals and took a pic of one of his male zebras and had the black Range
Rover painted with authentic stripes. You're welcome to use this pic if it meets your freak standards. Some love it, some not.
  This is what you don't what to have happen, ever. If you do, have marshmallows handy. A prize for anyone who can identify where this photo was taken, and what kind of vehicle it was.
 Here's a few Rovers.... 3000 or so! If you know where they are, shoot me an email and I'll tell you if you are right!
