monty Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I am Andrew from Rossendale. I have a 1944 GPW which I have had for a few years. It went to Normandy in 04 and will be there again in 14 if not sooner. I get out and about in it when possible and like to get it off road and tackling the hills etc in low ratio. I used to have a Landrover Lightweight as well but when I moved house that had to go as sadly it wouldnt fit in the garage. One of the things I like doing is occasional euro road trips which have taken in the various delights of Normandy, Pas de Calais, Arnhem, Berlin, Colditz, the 3 dambusted dams, Nordhausen's V2 rocket tunnels, Bastogne, the Somme, and various other places of significance to explore and pay due respect etc to our heroes of our recent past.
