The Landy Magazine
27 June 2023
If you were getting ready for an expedition through the wilds of Africa, what would you choose to do it in? A new Defender, perhaps? A highly prepped old-shape 110, more likely. A Disco, of whatever vintage? A 101 with a camper conversion on the back? In this month’s issue of The Landy, we’ve got the story of a man who did it in a spluttering Series III he bought for less than a grand. And his verdict on the experience? He’d never do it in anything else. His reasoning makes fascinating reading… So too does the tale of a true time-warp Disco we’ve unearthed, which is original all the way down to the compass graphics on its doors. A true survivor, and an absolute gem. There’s a home-built 110 camper with a difference in this issue, too. Side lockers are fine things, but when did you last see one opening up to reveal a mobile bar lined up with bottles of gin? Oh, and the red leather interior is definitely not the stuff of your everyday overlander. As always, we’ve got the latest news in depth, some of the best products on offer for Landies old and new and, as popular as ever, a selection of Land Rovers for sale from private owners. And best of all, this issue contains a FREE guide to the Great British Land Rover Show at Bath and West on 29-30 July. It’s a new show that promises to become a big fixture in the summer calendar – and all the info you need to know ahead of it is right here in the new issue of The Landy!
