Roof Rails...

Hello everyone,

Someone just asked a question on the French website Landmania about some special roof racks that he saw on official pictures from L.R.

I must say that I never saw those :



You can see them better here :

Does any one know anything about those ?

Thanks ! [/img] Georgia On My Mind...

Yep... You are right, they do evoke the old discos ! It might be why they were never produced ? I can't say that I ever saw any of those ! Georgia On My Mind...

LHD D3 in that part of Eastnor - gotta be a development car judging by the state of the dash and the wires coiled up on it Wink

Is it my eyes or is the "LAND ROVER" missing from the bonnet front edge?

In the early days the cars carried cammo there to break up the roof line, it could well be that, shame you can't see the number plate to see the age of the car. DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone

Well there are other pictures where I took that one from where you can see the number plate... Wink It is from that site Official LR Gallery !

I guess that so far we all agree that it was maybe a planned development that never came to fruition ? Georgia On My Mind...
