. . . n a g e b l l a t i How r e t a L s p o p y l l o L o w T Pt.3 A.K.A. My Destination Towards Financial Ruin! Last month I regaled you with my experiences of living with a ’73 Land Rover Lightweight, and looking back that old thing was an integral part of my life with so many funny and life changing experiences. Sadly I sold her to a colleague who lived in Leeds and I never heard of her again. My next car was another vehicle that I had hankered after for a long time, a Moonaker Blue V8 Rover SD1. It made me smile - a lot. Despite only having it for a year or two, it still invokes happy memories, and I was driving it when I first met Muddy Madam, back in 1993. For that reason alone it deserves to sit high on a pedestal. The SD1 was great fun, but I yearned for the smell of burning clay on a hot exhaust, so the inevitable happened, Muddy Madam and I began our search for another Land Rover.
