Did you know we have our own permanent collection of vehicles here at GTM. The wide array of exhibits range from our popular Mack Snowplough & Sentinel Steam Waggon to this incredible Land Rover Series 1. 1956 saw the introduction of Land Rover’s first five-door model, on the 107-inch chassis, known as the "Station Wagon" with seating for up to ten people. This one, chassis number 006, is believed to be the oldest surviving 107” Station Wagon and is in remarkably original condition. The Land Rover was subject of a two year conservation programme by the museum’s volunteers, keeping as much of the original vehicle as possible. Their hard work paid off when the museum received a Restoration Award from the Transport Trust.
