Greg King on developing limited editions at Land Rover, the end of Defender and driving vs. collecting

In this episode of The LRM Podcast, Martin Domoney and Steve Miller are joined by Land Rover Monthly contributor, Greg King.

Greg talks about his current series of features in Land Rover Monthly, in which he travels up and down the country visiting all manner of companies and businesses synonymous with the Land Rover universe.

He explains how he managed to get his job at Land Rover and gives an insight into his fascinating career developing a plethora of special projects during the years he was there, including NAS, 50th Anniversary, 2-millionth Land Rover Defender and the run-out Autobiography, Heritage and Adventure models, followed by the 70th Anniversary Works V8s.

The trio agree on the need to get out and use Land Rovers for how they were intended, and Greg enthuses about some customers of a local firm that go greenlaning in very early Series Is.

An owner of a number of very cool and special Land Rovers over the years, Greg explains how he came to own an old family Defender 90, and the work it needed to bring it back up to scratch, He also debates the fine line between a Land Rover being usable and a collectable...

Greg also explains his involvement in the Revs Restore project, and why getting together with mates to tinker with Land Rovers and go out and about is so important. He also gives some sage advice to a listener who's facing a 700-mile trip to pick up a 110.
