Billing 1998
1998 is the 50th anniversary of Land Rover which added to the appeal of the annual Billing Land Rover gathering, held at the Billing Aquadrome near Northampton, England, 17-19 July.
First impression is of a sea of caravans. You forget about the caravans if you don't live in England. It's worth wandering around the general camping area because there will be various unique Landies parked out there, although the main action happens in the central arena and in the surrounding trade stalls.
