Just home from a brilliant day at the Landrover factory.........
Thanks to LandyBabe who got me the Home of the Legend Tour Gold Package for my birthday
Did the factory tour followed by lunch and then the Jungle Track in a D3 and then a 110 Defender.
Much better than going to work  :D  :D  :D  :D

There were a French couple on the Bronze tour so they left  after the factory tour, that left Carl (a South African from Luton  :shock:  :shock: ) and myself to scoff all the buffet lunch to ourselves as another couple failed to show  :?:  :?:  :?:
I wouldn't say we were pressured but it was suggested that we might like to drive the Disco 3 and a 110.
I fancied trying a Sport but they don't use them at the factory site.

Strange that,  :?

I drove sport on Sunday at Lode Lane on the jungle track & adventure zone...........mind you I also got to drive a D3, again on the jungle & adventure tracks, and if I had pushed my luck I could have had a drive in a Rangie....... :lol:

and what did it cost me.........





Nothing but a first class stamp.........

Thank you very much to  LROi magazine

It was "Gwil" who took us round in a D3 on the Sunday and it was HE who pointed out the sport in front of us on one section of the jungle track.

So how's that for not knowing the cars that come out the factory door   :shock:

Are the packages the same at every LR Experience centre? I just found theirs one up the road from us.

Only if each centre has a factory attached to it! The packages here are for the factory tour and specific to Lode Lane - I would imagine the packages at the 'off site' experience centres are similar from centre to centre but obviously not being able to offer the factory tour  :wink:
