Meet Bramble - the first Land Rover to join the Off-Road Experience fleet at Goodwood.

Bramble, an 88-inch short wheel base model, was first registered in January 1965. It is thought that her early life was spent in the military and she still retains her military-spec non-chromed headlights, plus an auxiliary fuel tank under the passenger seat with a change over switch under the dash.

At some point her brakes have been changed to the larger 11inch drums from the 109-inch long wheelbase model, which was an upgrade often carried out by Army mechanics. Following her military service, Bramble has moved between private owners on the south coast and along the way gained a convenient overdrive accessory for improved cruising.

She spent years on a farm in Dorset, before passing to a classic car enthusiast in town, where she enjoyed a gentle life making local trips to the shops, the beach and the rubbish tip. In April 2017, she branched out into a new automotive phenomenon when she became the founding member of the Goodwood Classic Land Rover fleet. As with her stablemates on the fleet, Bramble’s name is inspired by the natural flora found along the South Downs tracks that she now explores daily.
