Stage 1 V8

Does anyone know more? I wouldn't mind buying one of these (at some point in the future!!!)

I must admit that dash top jumped right out at bit me! I thought "thats a pre-74 dash top!!". Is the Stage 1 type vastly different from the generic late series III item? I would have thought they would be easy enough to get hold of.

I wonder how many they had. Looks like the Utility Station Wagon concept is far older than...

Keep up the good work Alex!

My Mrs is Portuguese so I am hoping to see some of these out and about next time we visit her family.

Witney Oxfordshire, but I work around the county and see a lot of Landies about.

I saw a really nice original white one (it was white, not Limestone) in Wantage a few months ago.
