Land Rover 75th

The Easter long weekend will once again see Australia’s Land Rovers converge on Cooma for the 75th Land Rover anniversary event.

Held over five days from Thursday April 6 to Monday April 10, the event sees Land Rover collectors, connoisseurs, preservationists, restorers and enthusiasts all coming together to celebrate 75 years of Land Rover history.

“It is here in Cooma where the Land Rover journey really started to take off with many Series 1 Land Rovers involved with the Snowy Hydro Construction Scheme,” an event spokesperson said.

“Some of those Land Rovers have even be returned to England for restoration and are highly sort after in the classic car world.

“Land Rover Anniversaries have now become a bit of thing around the world with the Cooma event becoming well know from 2008. That event really placed Cooma on the map and it is certainly the home for the Land Rover Anniversary events here in Australia.”

The event sets out to showcase the best examples of the Land Rover in all its guises, from renovated to restored, rare and bespoke
