I'll be there!

Yes, mine was in the small village Cugy just north of Lausanne. I don't think it was used very much. I have the original logbook and each journey was registered. When I bought it in 2015 it only had 12,000 km on the clock and that corresponded exactly with the logbook. It was just used for...

Thank you Simon!

Mine is a virgin so I'm good to go!

Yes, my '71 109 6cyl was a Swiss firetruck until 2015 when I bought it. At the minute it has 20,000 original kilometers on the clock. Here is a picture.

Simon I would like to know more about the rubber mats. Where did you buy them? Got any before and after pics? Did it make a big difference?

Hi Nick, Wow, you go way back too! I learned to drive in a Series in the desert of Bahrain back in the mid 1970s. My dad was the advisor to the Minister of Transport and he could take the police and military trucks out for the weekend. Great memories! I have been driving Land Rovers ever...

Hi Simon, Thanks for the reply and the info about the event. Unfortunately we will be in France at that time. You are right about the noise but I'm currently working on this problem. I have bought and rebuilt a Fairey overdrive and plan to install it soon. If you are ever near Luzern please...

Very helpful, thank you. I didn't realise there were issues with this unit. My towing will be only occasional and pretty light like hauling brush to the dump and stuff. So I think the unit above will work for my application. We don't have much theft here in Switzerland so I'm probably going to...

Thanks, I have been looking on eBay but nothing yet. I should have clarified that this is what I'm looking for...

I'm looking for a towbar for my Discovery 3. Anybody have one that's gathering dust? ;)

Apologies to everyone for not following up! For some reason I didn't get any notices about your replies. Thank you all for your data, especially Nickjaxe. I didn't have a clue what they originally sold for so this is a delightful bit of info. I owe you all a beer! ;)

I was wondering if anyone has run across the original prices (MSRP) for Series Land Rovers. I am particularly interested in 1971 6 cyl 5 door 109 prices. I have done some searching but have not found anything.

Hi, I'm Ed and I currently live in Switzerland but just bought a house in the Dordogne where my wife and I will eventually retire. I learned to drive in a Series Land Rover in the desert of Bahrain back in the mid 70's. I have owned many Landys in the past and currently have a 1971 Series 2A...
