Whilst the registration matches, several other points don't, it is either a replica displayed with the original number or the original vehicle completely rebuilt and ad the last recorded colour on DVLA was for a blue vehicle in 1992 given the patina I favour the former

I take it that its not owned by a S2C member then?

Probably don't want to dig too deep into its provenance, but its always been one of my favourite LR film vehicles.

There was a replica built quite a few years ago and was featured in one of the Landrover mag at the time.

The nearside one on the front bumper looks like it's been full of water. I wonder if there's a relay or two to operate them.

There was a S2C sticker under the visor. Does it belong to anyone on here?

I also saw a immaculately restored S3 bombing down the A55 on the way home.

My daughter saw this one in Placerville, Calif. Built by Timm Cooper, probably has an LS engine and 4whl disc brakes.
