Just thought I would exercise our old classic Land Rover today.

Sandringham Sidney is a V8 petrol stage 1 six wheel drive made by Hotspur Cars of Sandringham.

It was converted by a local to have a hydraulic tipping body and a basic but effective blacksmith built crane which I tested out today with a fairly hefty log.

 

Sidney is quite good at carrying more than a couple of tons of logs out of the woods but leaving far less damage than the tractors/ forklifts. Also much narrower for sneaking in between trees.

 

I love the sound of the V8 and all that power but I am conscious that every outing requires more fuel than my chainsaw would need for five years!
