Hello from Northumberland
Hello from Northumberland
I’ve been the proud/angry/indifferent owner of a 1972 109“ Land Rover Carawagon Continental for over two years now.
I’ve been keeping an eye on this forum for a while and have delayed signing up in the hope I could show you all a good solid roadworthy example of a Carawagon. Unfortunately for a variety of reasons (including my own lack of mechanical skills) I’ve failed abysmally in this but I do at least have an MOT certificate.
I shall attempt to upload some photos of it very soon.
Cheers,
Phil

Re: Hello from Northumberland
I like your introduction Phil
Don't feel bad - some of us have campers still in bits!
Pics would be great
Cheers,
Robin.

Hi and welcome
Great photo's, thanks.
My Dormobile is in bits, and has been so for a long time, two years is not uncommon and quite OK.
Regards Jan

Welcome to the club...
Interesting pictures. Must be a very rare model the continental. I assume it sleeps only 2?
Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh one day...
Cheers,
Michiel

Hi Jan and Michiel,
Thanks for making me welcome.
You're right Michiel it only sleeps 2 (plus room for one large dog hopefully).
Looking forward to getting it in a decent enough state to bring along to one of the events and of course to meeting some of you folks.
Cheers
Phil
