Well,

thank you to both Rob and Robert for their comments which I am happy to comment on and expand.

First of all, Rob, the vehicles you saw were two of the alleged 3 that the CF purchased as documented here and a picture is the bottom one below.

What happened to them is unclear but I am on the trail, I have better photos somewhere downstairs, now winter is finally here I will do more scanning like I did last winter, eventually.

Robert, the 1 Tonne for sale on Kijiji is mine!

Neither of you mentioned, maybe because unless you are a Land Rover anorak like myself, about the LUVW competition vehicle that was produced and resided at DEW In Ottawa until being returned to Land Rover in the UK and now lives at the Dunsfold Collection. I was given the opportunity to see this Land Rover in the flesh and record it on film when it was in Ottawa. Again, once scanned I will share them.

Now, anyone know of anything else Land Rover related to the Canadian Forces over the years?

Lynn, thank you for your injection of humour, it is appreciated

I know Land Rovers are a very dry topic for most so it does help
