All about us
The Land-Rover Series 2 Club
For benefits of Club membership click here.
The
Series 2 Club is dedicated to the preservation of all Land- Rover models built
between 1958 and 1971. This
includes the 2a and 2b forward control models as well as all 2 and 2a models of
the standard Land-Rover.
A quarterly
magazine, "Built Two Last", is published and sent to all members’ home address. Articles include technical, humorous, events and hints and
tips as well as buy and sell columns.
The Club is
divided into areas with organisers who organise events and
liaise with larger
event organisers to obtain entry to these through the club.
Events organised by the Club include greenlaning, social evenings,
camping weekends and fun days, like The Exmoor challenge (Southwest) and The
Llama Trophy (Peak District). Attendance
at all the major Land-Rover events and many of the smaller local steam and
vintage rallies are organised and published in the magazine.
We are a non
competitive Club and our events are geared towards the whole family being able
to join in. We have a well stocked
club shop with badges, stickers, T-shirts, mugs and glasses etc all of which
have Land-Rover or Series 2 Club Logos.
Social
events, usually pub meets, are informal affairs when members gather to talk
Land-Rovers and other associated light hearted banter.
Off-roading
is usually in the form of green laning trips; these are suitable for restored
vehicles and although your vehicle may get a little dirty there is little or no
risk of damage.
Vintage
rallies are attended by almost all the areas of the Club and although some of
these at present do not have a separate section for Land-Rovers, the Club is at
the forefront of gaining recognition for our historic vehicle status by
sponsoring trophies for Land-Rovers at many of the events we attend.
Land-Rover
events like the A.R.C. International
and the LRe Billing event are
attended by the Club and in fact we usually
provide the concourse judges at “the International”.
At Billing we have won awards for our magazine ‘Built Two Last’ and
in 1998 The Series Two Club was voted best Club by visitors to the show.
We have a technical officer who can answer members queries about their
Land-Rover or can obtain the information required through his network of
contacts. The Club is registered
with the DVLA to authenticate vehicles and registration numbers.
Our registrations officer has an exceptional relationship with the DVLA
and has been instrumental in obtaining many reinstated and age related numbers
for members and non-members alike (members receiving preferential rates).
The Club is
a member of The Association of Rover Clubs (ARC),
The Federation of British
Historic Vehicle Clubs (FBHVC), The Green Lanes Association (GLASS) and is a
DVLA listed club.
All members
vehicles are recorded on a register held on a computer
database and from this
future historians and present members alike can obtain information on a
particular vehicle.
Overall the Club, which has a worldwide membership of over 1000 enthusiasts, has a good
atmosphere and whether you just want to receive the magazine or get involved,
you and your family will be made welcome.
