First Photo Of S50 RAT
« on: December 31, 2005, 12:26:49 »
As a continuation of the thread; Last Photo Of S50 RAT, here's the first official photo of the replacement.


Oh ye of little faith :lol:

I didn't actually say I'd bought a Blackpool Rocket (TVR) only that I;
Fancied one
Wanted one
Would like one (would still like one)
And garnished it with a few bits of information about them

Yes, it's a 110 Heritage.
October 1999 registration
48,000miles  with full LRSH
Green leather & all the bits

Still on original plate until I can get to the DVLA office in Leeds on Wednesday


And you all considered I'd leave the 'Green Oval' :roll:  :roll: (tsk,tsk, tsk....)

Nice one BTM. As far as TD5's go they don't get much better than the Heritage IMHO.




Never doubted your commitment to the Green Oval for a minute.....HONEST :oops:

Nice truck... and for those who wonder why I seem to recall Top gear rating them as 'Ice Cool'  :D  Admittedly creature comforts won't be the same as the Disco but what a truck and with a few carful mods an awsome machine.

I've got a 110 on my future wish list. Done RRC , currently Disco for the Daily and Laguna, IIa and 101 as toys.

I'd really love a 90 but the kids and dog kid of rule it out, Shame LR didn't do a 100" with forward facing seats and a smaller rear load area.


We also Caravan so it's how many survival items I can fir in....BBQ... Beer....more beer... :lol:

Lets see pictures once it has been used for what it was intended for :twisted:   complete with slightly misshaped running boards (or whatever they are now called).
