War of the Roses 2019

Classic Land Rover magazine entered a scratch team into this long running annual interclub event held in Cumbria. Other teams included those from the Scottish Land Rover Club, Peak & Dukeries LRC, Blackpool & Fylde LRC, Lakeland Land Rover and organisers, Red Rose LRC. The off-road and winching event tested teams of six people and three Land Rovers against each other – CLR entered three leafers – all Marine Blue – two of which had Fairey PTO winches fitted.

The win eventually went to one of the Scottish teams  and the Team Spirit Award went to another of the Scottish teams. Team CLR had a great day but were beaten into 8th place by just four points. This hasn’t deterred them and the team is hoping to be back next year. Photos Ian Clegg. More info at www.landroverclub.co.uk.
