Land Rover proud to support The CLA Game Fair


As the world’s biggest celebration of country sport and pursuits, The CLA Game Fair provides Land Rover with a superb opportunity to connect with a key part of its UK market. This year’s event at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire (22nd to 24th July), promises to attract thousands of visitors to enjoy a vast range of country pursuits, competitions, demonstrations and crafts.

Land Rover will be once again proudly displaying its full model line-up at the fair, this time with the new attraction of the Range Rover Evoque Coupe and 5-door. The new Evoque’s debut at the event forms part of a busy programme of preview displays at equestrian and countryside events that are introducing the “compact” Range Rover to the British public, demonstrating that its cool contemporary styling is underpinned by traditional Land Rover quality and engineering.


The Land Rover Experience will also be at The Game Fair, demonstrating just some of the off-road strengths that have made Land Rover an iconic brand around the world, with passenger rides over a purpose-built course.

As a well-established supporter of The CLA Game Fair, Land Rover will again be sponsoring the Clay Pigeon Shooting Association’s Champion of Champions competition in which individual county champions contest an overall title.

Additionally, Land Rover is also sponsoring the fair’s new VIP Club. The Club promises visitors a first class experience, with use of a concierge service, refreshments throughout the day and exclusive seating.

Historics auction ex Gerry Marshall Land Rover


A Land Rover lovingly owned by the late racing legend Gerry Marshall, and still sporting a series of ‘optional extras’ that signify his infectious enthusiasm for both cars and competition, will be auctioned at Historics Summer sale at Brooklands on Tuesday 19th July.

The 1972 Series III workhorse is affectionately festooned with stickers detailing Marshall’s various memberships, interests and passions, such as the Aston Martin Owners Club, The British Racing Drivers Club and Historic Sports Car Club amongst others.



As a short wheel base variant, the more sporting looks of this 88(“) County model aptly reflect Marshall’s racing credentials – with 625 race wins across various formula, spanning 40 years – whilst the addition of a secondary, competition rev counter leave an indelible imprint of its previous owner.

Currently owned by a close family friend, this reliable Land Rover has spent its most recent years garaged, seeing only limited use outside of the annual MOT test, and offers in the region of £4,000 - £6,000 are anticipated for one of the most famous examples of this vehicle in existence.
