malkiserow Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 This really does look like something for the LR Heritage Centre. Apologies Ditchie, I misundstood your earlier, I thought this engine had got an MOT meaning it must be installed in your LR but perhaps you have 2 LR's.

toby12 Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 Jesus wept Simon!! You were not kidding about this post, I have to admit that I have only skimmed it so far...But I feel I need to point out to all followers of this post, including those that think Old Ditchman has finally lost his marbles, that this is a really, really good example of a Landy, and as such is worth all this effort. Nah..... Who am I trying to kid? You have finally flipped!! Happy Xmas mate, was good to see you yesty, must get out with guns in hand in the new year.
