Hi, Can anyone tell me the original colour of Sir Winston Churchill's Land Rover "UKE 80"? I have a black & white (scanned) photo of him standing in front of a very dark colour open-top S1. I'm thinking of making a model of that interesting scene. Thanks ET

but noway of knowing if colour is original.
The motor heritage centre at Gaydon should be able to tell you the original colour, by looking up the records.
The vehicle gets an article every so often in the mags, perhaps a chat with them might get a back-issue? From what I remember, the vehicle was supplied in green and is totally original, having covered few miles.
