Hi Guys, this is the only V8 in Addis Abeba Ethiopia running for now as far as i know, i bought this car from the National Palace in Addis Abeba,it used to belong to the communist,dictator leader(Colonel Mengistu Hailemariam) who toppled the Emperor of Ethiopia in 1974 then stayed in power untill 1991, rumors say that the Colonel loved Land Rovers so he orderd 5 Stage Ones in 1979, but i do not know the whereabouts of the other four. When i baught this car 12 years ago it had only 24000 km only . I customized a few things like paint job,winch, extended roofrack change reems and so, on i will give more details soon.
Cheers

Re: The only Stage One in Ethiopia

very brave to have all that fuel on the roof - where l am from that would have been robbed ages ago.
