The Gaydon Land Rover Show will celebrate the 30th anniversary of the popular Range
Rover P38 when it takes place on 4 & 5 May at the British Motor Museum. The second-generation Range Rover was launched in 1994, twenty four years after the introduction of the Range Rover. The dedicated and hugely popular show will once again showcase hundreds of Defenders, Series I – III, Discoverys and mighty Range Rovers from 1948 to the present day. Now in its 10th year, it is the ultimate celebration of the best 4x4’s by far.
At the centre of the show will be the Arena where Dave Barker will lead an enthusiastic
and knowledgeable team, providing live commentary and inviting owners, restorers, club members and enthusiasts to share their stories behind their treasured vehicles.
Tom Caren, Show Manager at the British Motor Museum stated “The Gaydon Land Rover show is one of the biggest days in the calendar for Land Rover fans and families and the only show where you will find the number one pre-production Land Rover ‘HUE 166’ or ‘Huey’. It is simply a fantastic day out for all the family with a great atmosphere,
displays, live music, parades, and club celebrations”.
Children are invited to come along and display their 'Mini Me' Land Rover vehicles with
all Miniatures welcome. There will also be live music from vintage singing trio 'My
Favourite Things' on the Sunday. The Museum and Collections Centre will also be open
where visitors can view the wide range of Land Rovers in the collection. Some of the
most historically significant Land Rovers are available to see, not least the first pre-
production Land Rover (HUE 166)! There are also many Royal Land Rovers and even film
stars such as the Defender 110s from Skyfall and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider.
Camping in the grounds is available on the Friday and Saturday evening for those
wanting to make a weekend of it in a motorhome, tent, or caravan. Camping is just £25
per pitch per night when booked in advance.

weekend. Additional tickets are available to purchase if extra passengers are required.
Advance ticket prices are £16 per adult, £9 per child (5-16 years), Under 5 free, £14 per
concession and £43 for a family.
