My pride 'n' joy is a 1973 Lomas-bodied Range Rover Classic ambulance, although it will become a camper in due course. No longer trading, the Lomas company was located in Cheshire, England.
I am keeping the vehicle in it's orginal condition until I finnaly have the time and money to convert it properly - work in progrees you could call it.
As I run 4x4 tours in the Spanish Pyrenees, where it's impossible to acquire LPG, the original tired 3.5 V8 has been replaced with a 300 Tdi, auto box and the largest intercooler I could find - the combination means that it pulls like a train!
Personally I went for this particular ambulance conversion as unlike some bodies that look as the rear of the Rangie has been hacked off and replaced with a box on the back, this version has the body line of a Range Rover Classic from front to rear.
Anyone out there with other RR ambulances/campers?
