    LandyJumble, Sibbertoft, Leics 1st Nov 2009 – CANCELLED

    I’m sorry to say the latest LandyJumble event at Sibbertoft in Leicestershire 1st November 2009 has had to be cancelled. Why? It’s a sign of the times I’m afraid, for it’s obvious there are just not enough folk out there playing … and therefore breaking their motors. That and the fact there...

    4x4 enthusiast’s funeral procession Friday 23rd October 2009

    Did you know Lawlor ‘La La’ Varley? A Jap 4x4, Land Rover and military vehicle enthusiast, he sadly gave his unequal fight against the BIG ‘C’ last week. His last request? A soddin’ great procession of 4x4’s through his home town of Handforth near Wilmslow in Cheshire. Whether you knew the...

    Cast alloy alternator bracket required for a 200 Tdi

    A mate of mine is stranded in deepest darkest Wales with a snapped alternator bracket on his 200 Tdi lump, so obviously needs a replacement like pronto! I believe I'm right in saying that it's the same bracket that holds the steering pump pulley. Can anyone help?

    LandyJumble 9th Aug 09, Sibbertoft, WITH off-road course

    Sorry, for once I really have no idea which traders/sellers will be turning up as usually traders will book in advance to take advantage of advance-booking discounts, only in this case ... All I know is that plenty have either phoned or emailed to make certain the event date is set in stone...

    LandyJumble 9th Aug 09, Sibbertoft, WITH off-road course

    Just to let you know with a week to go, seems the 'free entry for sellers' idea is working with loads of newbies asking about booking pitches. Good reaction at Billing too, the autojumblers mentioning the fact that it costs them enough in fuel as it is, so to trade for free is a real bonus...

    LandyJumble 9th Aug 09, Sibbertoft, WITH off-road course

    BTW, I've now made the Trade Stands free as well as sometimes the line between what is new and what's secondhand is sometimes blurred. This way there can be no confusion, it's free to all sellers ... end of! I hope this 'giveaway' works 'cause if successful I can carry it on for future...

    LandyJumble 9th Aug 09, Sibbertoft, WITH off-road course

    Okay, as LandyJumble is now growing with every event (this will be No. 4) and therefore covering its costs, we have decided to do our bit to help out with this so-called “Credit Crunch” thingy. For 9th August 2009 only, all sellers pitches will be totally free … yes, FREE! This means you can...

    LandyJumble Autumn Clearout, Sibbertoft, Leics Sun 2 Nov`08

    By way of an update, I've had a chap book with loads of ex-military Land Rover gear incl. 101 stuff. Also, there will be three times as many traders as the last LandyJumble back in August. That was yet another summer downpour, let's hope for better this Sunday!

    Range Rover Ambulance

    I’m trying to contact the chap that was selling the Range Rover camper conversion (an ex-Wadham Stringer ambulance I believe) at Newbury 4x4 & Vintage Spares Day, Berkshire on 5th October 2008. Can anyone help? Failing that, do you know of a RR Classic ambulance that needs a new lease of...

    Landy Rally Euro Charity Drive 2008: live tracking!

    Good stuff! Just waiting for 'Johnny Foreigner' to break our record then we'll have another go and bring it back to where it belongs. They (the Belgians and the Dutch) have tried twice so far ... and failed twice! :D

    If you mean the Guinness World Records Land Rover Attempt in 2004 where the parade of 260 Landies established a new world record ... then that would be me (proud of that I am!) BTW, just last month a Frontera World Record was attempted at the prestigious Rockingham Raceway. Despite over 50,000...

    Please note, the 4x4 MARKET scheduled for 9th November at Matchams, Bournemouth has been cancelled. Unfortunately the off-road course has been shut down due to a SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) notice being slapped on the venue by the Environment Agency. Apparently they found a...

    Landy Rally Euro Charity Drive 2008: live tracking!

    Nah ... survived! Glad I went on the ferry though. Most Land Rover owners tend to plump for the ferry as (1) Eurotunnel don't like LPG vehicles, and (2) They also don't like jerricans - even empty! For those who did follow the live tracking ... wasn't it awesome? Whilst en route I got a text...
