Thought that was the one with tractor tyres and geared hubs (what's the term?)

I want one now
i think the one in the first photo is the Dunsfold one, i believe there was only 5 ever built (might have only been 3) there's at most four left as number one was broken up and scrapped
we were discussing these vehicles on the S2 forum about a week ago (might have been considerably longer as i can't find the thread now), they were even fitted with 2.25 turbo diesel engines in the early/mid 60s
i'd love one but laning could get tricky

Unlikely, there's 10 years' difference between the two vehicles. I suspect the "Big Rover" lost out to the 2b FC, and the fact that Rover Ltd. were going through a merger with BMC.
