Hello all,
Myself and Greg have been working on this for a while and are please to announce a Defender 50th club meet to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of Land Rover and the 20th birthday of our vehicles.
The date is confirmed for 20th May. Event will open at 9am and the showroom and facilities be open till 1pm.
The event will be kindly hosted by Jaguar Land Rover and be held at the Classic Works and should include:
- Parking for over 160 vehicles
- New 70th Anniversary V8 Defender on display
- Open show room with a Land Rover Reborn and other Land Rovers on display.
- Showroom with taped off areas so that the club members can see the work that is done at Classic Works.
- A viewing area for the collection area.
- Refreshments and light food available
- A sales adviser for Land Rover Classic Products (workshop services and vehicle sales)
This is a generous offer from JLR to build relationships with owners and clubs and encourage them to be a part of Land Rover.

Just to add to James comments, The Jaguar Land Rover Classic events team are extremely excited to support the Defender 50th owners group in the 20th celebrations.
You will have privileged access to the showrooms, workshop and collection hall, with a wide range of Land Rovers and Jaguars on display, Including - of course - the Defender Works V8 70th Edition and we are hoping to secure a ride and drive event, subject to confirmation.
It really will be worth coming to and a celebration to remember. The ideal situation is to get 50 Defender 50ths together - what a birthday that would be for our Defenders!
Go on save the date and confirm below - You’ll have a great day! _________________ Greg
