New Land Rover In Courtenay

#1 Post by mthede » Fri Feb 09, 2024 5:15 pm

I have recently moved to Courtenay with my 1970 88 which I bought new. I would like to connect with LR owners in the area. I also own a brand new Defender.

Evening from Campbell River. There's a few of us out here, none quiet as famous as 'English Dave'.

I've got a 1964 109 that I'm in the midst of restoring.

The next club event I know of on the island will be our 21st Van Isle Land Rover Rally. It will be on the first weekend in May this year, Starting Friday May 3rd we have moved it up a month this year from its normal time in mid-June in the hope that we can get into the forests for a drive before fire season shuts the roads down (Global warming).
Details will be available in the near future, 4 free fun filled days of rovering, camping and the world famous Saturday night Pot -luck.
T-shirts will be available again this year (although its going to be tough to beat last years design).
Photos of past events are in the photo section.

Welcome to the Island, we really should all go up Island for Coffee one of these days. Us lower Island rover owners could caravan up in a convoy (safety in numbers).
There are quite a few Series land rovers and defenders on the Island.

Talk soon Victor

Thanks for the info. Yes, we could meet for coffee sometime. We just had a quick meeting with 3 Land Rovers in Courtenay.

I would be interested in a run sometime on some bush trails.
