As it stands it has a canvas top. Painted in a unknown green colour, with a 2.5 petrol engine out of a later 90. The white on the wings is where I have removed a set of lights that looked hideous — I am planning to tig-weld them in due course. I am on Kingpin 205/16 [tyres], which really fit it well.
I agree — we have the same tyres on 'Fido' (SXF870). Based on the original 'Range Rover' Michelin M+S tread pattern, they not only look good, but are excellent in snow and wet fields.
From the high mesh sides on Sam's trailer, the location of the above picture, and his email address, I would guess that 469 earns its living doing tree work.
Once owned by Paul Eaton, Birmingham.
[Note that SXF464-470 — not all included in this database — were unusual in that they had consecutive chassis numbers (111800963 - 00969)... but in reverse order!]
