Stage 1 V8

I'm pretty sure it's mine furthest away. All the clues match up.

Here's a picture of the outbuildings at Studley Castle in the 80s (scroll down to the first picture): https://www.britishmotormuseum.co.uk/about-us/about-the-trust Save it to your computer - it actually saves a lot larger than on the webpage - and blow it up.

Link works! Interesting vehicle, and result with photo of it in silver. What's the thoughts on restoration? Back to that point in time? I'm in two minds about the colour. Silver BMIHT livery is an interesting option though marine blue is tempting as that's how it left the factory. It's still across...

I've uploaded a few pics, hope the link works.

Reckon you could scan an share the article? Very glad that the prototype got saved. Damned close shave. Will do. I've just bought old issues of LRE and they are on the way to me now. I'll also need to open a photo sharing account as my phone pics are too big for the forum. Is Photobucket the easies...

March and June. I've just bought copies from eBay today.

Will do later.

RHP was also silver when at BMIHT

It's safe and well and I'll be getting it back on the road later this year. It will turn 40 in December so I'll appreciate the free tax! I'm delighted to have saved this piece of Land Rover history. It will appear in Classic Land Rover magazine in due course. I'd love to speak to Christopher Mahony ...

Thanks Geoff,
Just looking into a bit of history now. It was used by BMIHT as a run around and tow truck in the 1980s. It was in LRE magazine in 2001 in James Taylor's Roverphile.

Hi folks
Just to let you know I have bought prototype number 2 from the salvage yard in Nottingham. It's safe and will be restored over time.
Cheers
