While at Eastnor yesterday there were a number of grey JCB's with Land Rover Experience badges on them... a sign of things to come I guess
Some of the instructors there said if the rumours were true about LR being sold as part of Jaguar and JCB bought them... it would be a good fit engineering wise. Kind of agree.
