Land Rover 50th Anniversary, Cooma, Australia.


   

James Taylor, the Land Rover historian and writer, is coming to Cooma to act as chief judge for the concours event that will choose the best Series 1, Series 2, etc. Land Rovers at the Australian Land Rover 50th celebrations. All Land Rover gonzos will be well aware of James Taylor's many books on the history of Land Rover.

The Land Rover 50th celebrates the release of the first series 1 in 1948. The event is to be held in Cooma NSW, as was the 40th anniversary, because of its easy access and due to the ties with the Snowy Mountains Hydo Electric Authority which dates from the same era and which bought many Land Rovers.
