"Betsy" is the call sign of our 1967 Series 2 109 Safari control vehicle.



Today we are in the Central region finals of the Peoples Lottery bidding for £50k for a new vehicle which we will then customise for our requirements. If you live in th4 Central TV area the program is live



18:00 to 18:30.

All it takes is a phone call to


0871 626 8828

before midnight tonight.



Calls cost 10p from a land line



"We" are Staffordshire Search and Rescue Team. We provide a trained volunteer force to assist the police in searches for missing person and also 4x4 logistical support to the police, fire and ambulance services in floods and inclement weather

Thanks Mike

Max permitted is 10 calls from any one number.

The 109 is quiet a collectors item. Only about 10k miles on the clock, genuine from new. Spent most of it's life in an air conditioned garage doing nothing - but serviced regularly.

What!!! Not a Land Rover! I wouldn't have voted if I had known you were not replacing Betsy with another Land Rover :-)

Seriously, congratulations

We've got Charlie (300Tdi LH drive) CSW which we use as a personnel and equipment carrier and Amie the (TD5) Ambulance

We were also donated a Disco 1 Ambulance a few weeks. No MOT, "needs a bit done on it". I think well now be looking for a new home for that soon if anyone is interested
