Platinum Member jocadmin Posted September 1, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted September 1, 2016 After a successful visit to last year's show the JOC has been invited back to this year's show. We have been approached by an increasing number of traditional LR owners so this will be a good opportunity for the Jeep Owners Club to be on hand to answer any approaches. Club Sponsor Yorkshire 4x4 Treks will also have a display stand at the show detailing their many upcoming expeditions. We have room for one or two more Jeeps so if you would like to display your Jeep on either or both days please express your interest asap. ****Please note that traffic will be cut off at 8:30am each day for anyone wishing to put their Jeep on display.

Platinum Member Rolf Posted September 1, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted September 1, 2016 I will be there on Saturday, I might even polish the jeep for the occasion. Depending on when Jules is coming up for the Thetford trip on Sunday, I might have to leave a little early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member jeepjimboy Posted September 17, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted September 17, 2016 Looks like a decent Stand Jim, I think I'll have to get a couple of JOC stickers from you tomorrow after all. Looking forward to seeing you in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member Steve1 Posted September 17, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted September 17, 2016 Good stand today guys. The attitude from some of the LR boys on the LRO facebook page is quite shocking! cant believe how hostile they are towards a few jeeps in a field of a million land rovers... beyond banter some comments, serious complaints haha. That aside, good show albeit a lot of tat for sale! ventured to Tixover for their offroad course (only jeep on it). Thought it was pay and play session when i paid 25 quid, turned out to be for 1 lap :icon_eek: their difficult claypit section i managed to do in 4 high auto, but hey ho. (was there to try out my mates new D4 so not really the point) somehow got the jeep into the land rover parking area, to the dismay of the guy in the defender next to me trying to take a new FB cover photo... he then commented on my light bar so all good! anyway as i said, good stand lads.

Platinum Member Volant165 Posted September 17, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted September 17, 2016 Thanks for your support and missed you on a few occasions but well done and in true Jeep Owner style, showing that we opt to take the high road (which very often Land Rovers struggle to reach) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member Mac Posted September 17, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted September 17, 2016 I was at the show today, and thoroughly enjoyed it a good laugh with good company oh yes and the obligatory few idiots that need to learn the history of their vehicles, love the comments on the LRO Facebook page!

Platinum Member jeepjimboy Posted September 18, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted September 18, 2016 What a busy show! lots to see, albeit old bits for old LRs. Other interesting stuff as well of course, including Adrian Flux booth :icon_eek: I'm pleased that JOC got an invite to participate, thank you indeed Nene Overland :great: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jules Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Spencer Wilks: "In 1947, he founded Land Rover around Maurice's design for a small, sturdy, economical, four wheel drive utility vehicle modelled on the Willys Jeep. Seems the Wilks brothers also used a jeep on their family farm. Wonder why LRO never reported this with the JOC pictures on their Facebook page? A simple caption....." Where Landrover began"..... Jeep at the Landrover show? Very appropriate. I guess the truth really does hurt the LR purists who have gone into denial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
