How did your passion for Land Rovers start?
It started with a job posting at school for a technician position at a dealership that hadn’t even begun construction yet. I tore it off the board, went there that day, was told I couldn’t start for 4-6 months, took the job anyway, and the momentum took over from there.
What was the first Land Rover you owned?
1990 Range Rover Classic. It was given to me while I was deployed overseas by a customer from the first dealership I worked at. Didn’t run, tough shape, but he couldn’t bear to see it junked. I drove it for 2 years, finally parted it to build another 1990 RRC.
How many Land Rovers have you owned?
Too many to count
Do your Land Rovers have a name? If so, what is the name?
I’m not into naming my cars, but the first RRC I owned was named “Falcon” by the previous owner. It stuck for as long as I had it.
What is your most memorable Land Rover moment?
There have been so many, it’s hard to pick out just one.
What is your favourite accessory on your Land Rover and why?
My ARB freezer / fridge. I can’t go anywhere without it. It is also my most borrowed accessory.
Complete the sentence: My Land Rover has a Soul because…
I believe they are like APL dogs. They know they have been adopted and given a new home and the chance to do some fun things. As finicky as they are sometimes, I think they are somehow able to show their appreciation.
