ADMIN
Chairman's
Chat.
First of all I must thank those committee members
who stood down from their posts at this years A.G.M,
Peter Oakden, Harold Lowe and Dave Marsh. They have
all put a lot of time and effort into supporting the
Association and progressing it to where we are today.
I am sure that you all join me in expressing our
gratitude and look forward to seeing them at future
events.
What a shock to take over this role and then to
find that BMW decides to break up the Rover Group.
You may ask where do we go from here? Well these are
early days yet as the new owners of Rover and Land
Rover have yet to be finalised. You can rest assured
that as soon as these are known we will be
establishing new contacts within the relevant company
or companies to make them aware of this devoted group
of followers of the marque.
ARC NEWS.
Due to a change in operating practice at Land
Rover this will be the last edition of ARC NEWS that
will drop through your letterbox courtesy of the
Company. Land Rover has kindly supported the A.R.C.
with both printing and distribution of this
newsletter since its introduction in December 1995
for which we are very grateful. Many members have
come to rely on the up to the minute information and
current issues contained within ARC NEWS, however we
cannot continue this service without a generous
sponsor.
As an interim measure to get future publications
to you the members we have circulated your club
secretaries requesting contact addresses, both postal
and e-mail for your club newsletter editor. Future
copies of ARC NEWS will be sent via post or e-mail to
the club editors for them to cascade relevant
information to you. For those of you that have access
to the internet ARC NEWS can be found on the ARC
website www.the-arc.co.uk I sincerely hope that we
can secure a sponsor for the future to enable us to
resume the direct mail service to which you have
become accustomed.

RANGE ROVER
30th / LAND ROVER MARQUE DAY & H.M.C. RUN 17th /
18th June 2000
The Range
Rover Birthday Celebrations
Saturday 17th June 2000 - Heritage Motor Centre,
Gaydon
In 1970, thirty years ago to the very day, Range
Rover was launched. To commemorate this, The Range
Rover Register is organising a day of celebration
events at The Heritage Motor Centre, Gaydon, on 17th
June 2000.
The programme of events will include:-
Displays of Range Rovers of all types - some very
interesting examples are booked-in.
Talk and films by Mark Clark
Franchised dealer display
Raffle (One prize is a day at "The Land Rover
Experience")
The main arena event is a staged road traffic "accident"
which will show the role of the Range Rover vehicle
with the emergency services.
An Air Ambulance will be on display (subject to
operational requirements, of course) and this
represents one aspect of the afternoon's events -
that of supporting Range Rover Register's currently
adopted charity, The Air Ambulance Association.
The Range Rover Register invite A.R.C. members to
take part with them at their "Birthday Dinner"
on the Saturday evening at a nearby hotel (J.15 of M40)
Details of costs are available from Chris Elliott (phone
no. below)
There is to be a record-breaking attempt! On Saturday
it is hoped to assemble the largest ever gathering of
Range Rovers, at Gaydon. Details - please ring 0976

The Land
Rover Marque Day and Heritage Motor Centre Run:
Sunday 18th June 2000
The Land Rover Marque Day is now well-established
in the Land Rover events calendar and, in addition to
the usual displays by both non-A.R.C. and A.R.C. Land
Rover Clubs, there will be the Range Rover displays
carried over from the Saturday's celebrations of
"Range Rover 30".
The centre-piece, however, will be the arrival at
H.M.C. at approx. 11.00 hrs, of the cavalcade of Land
Rover products of all types, from its starting point
at Lode Lane - the ancestral home of Land Rover.
There are to be trade / autojumble stands and, for
the children, there will be the usual entertainments
available. Land Rover Marque merchandise will be on
sale and the Centre's excellent (and reasonably
priced) catering facilities will be open. In the
museum, there are many interesting and unusual Land
Rover products on display, in addition to the vast
array of motor vehicles of all types that form the
Heritage Motor Centre's collection. The cinema will
be showing films of special interest to Land Rover
enthusiasts.
There will be a display of original Land Rover
Sales Literature illustrating "The Versatility
of The Land Rover", kindly loaned by Derek Allen
(Land Rover Series Two Club)
The Heritage Motor Centre Run will set off on
Sunday at 10.00 hrs from Lode Lane Works for the
drive through the Warwickshire countryside to Gaydon,
where the various "sections" of the
cavalcade will re-group before driving down the
central roadway to the Arena. Entry into the
cavalcade costs £10 per vehicle and this includes
the Rally-plate, route-card and a limited edition
commemorative plaque. The fee also covers free access
to the Museum and grounds for the driver, one adult
passenger and all children under 16 years. Other
passengers in 'Run' vehicles will need to pre-purchase
their admission tickets (at the special discounted
rate of £5 for the weekend) direct from Jane Roche
at H.M.C. - phone no. below.
This discounted weekend rate for admission is
available to all A.R.C. members, not just those
entering a vehicle in "The Run", provided
you pre-purchase your discounted tickets, but
remember, the driver of a Land Rover product and
under 16's get free entry anyway. If you do not pre-purchase
discounted tickets, you will be charged the normal
price of £6 per day at the kiosks.
Camping is available, to members of A.R.C.-affiliated
clubs only, on The Meadow within the Centre's grounds
from noon Friday 16th June until noon Monday 19th
June, and pre-booking is essential due to limited
places available. Range Rover Register members should
book their camping with their own club on the form
they will already have received. Non-A.R.C. members
can obtain details of nearby sites from Jane Roche at
H.M.C.
There are still places available for Sunday's
"Heritage Motor Centre Run" and some
campsite places on The Meadow. If you are intending
entering, please complete the application form
circulated with ARC NEWS no. 32 - March 2000 (and
repeated again at the back of this issue) and send it
off to me, Chris Savidge (Snr), very soon (phone no.
below)

on Land Rover Marque Day (18th June) should contact

THE 'ALL-ROVER
WEEKEND'
26th to 28th AUGUST 2000, at the N.A.C., Stoneleigh,
Warwickshire
The first, and most important point to get over
about this event, is that it is for both Rover Car
owning members and for Land Rover product owning
members of A.R.C. Clubs! The second is to tell you
that you will definitely not be overcome by boredom
whilst you are there! Not only will there be plenty
to interest the Rover Car and Land Rover enthusiasts
on the A.R.C.'s displays, but the Town & Country
Festival, of which we are a part, in the "Motor
World" Section, which has over 50 clubs
displaying examples of the world's motoring heritage,
is made up of three other 'sections'.
"Live World" is concerned with
entertainment, from pets for the children, gymnastics
and motor cycle displays to steel bands and medieval
jousting.
"Countryside World" features British
food and farming, with live demonstrations and a
chance to partake in country sports.
"Shopping and Leisure World" is a haven
for shoppers of all tastes and ages with 700 stalls
selling just about anything. There are also vast
antiques and craft shows on site. You will need all
of the three days just to look at it!
So far, three A.R.C. Clubs have offered special
displays, including The Land Rover Register (1948-1953),
The 101 Forward Control Club and Register, who are
celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the 101"
Land Rover, and The Range Rover Register who will
have special displays marking 30 years of Range Rover
(and 15 years of their Club). R.R.R. will also be
running their off-road rides, raising money for The
Air Ambulance Association - their current adopted
charity.
In this connection, R.R.R. propose to stage a
presentation in the Grand Ring which will include a
staged road traffic accident, attended by Range
Rovers used by the emergency services - and maybe
even an Air Ambulance. The Range Rover Register need
your help, and that of the Show's visitors, to exceed
their total raised at last year's event, when they
donated £3000 to "Hearing Dogs for Deaf People".
The Royal Agricultural Society, on whose
showground the Festival is held, have again given A.R.C.
permission to organise a 4 x 4 Concours (for vehicles
up to 1985) and have generously agreed to provide
three trophies for this. Rover car owners can enter
the Festival's existing Concours, in the appropriate
class.
Members requiring an entry form for either
Concours please contact me on 0115 926 7716 for an
entry form which, in the case of a car entry, needs
to be returned to me by 5th July 2000.
Costs to members displaying their vehicle on our
display stand (or helping with the off-road courtesy
rides) have been held at the same rates as in 1998
and 1999. Details can be found in the booking sheet
at the back of this ARC NEWS. Please use the form,
either day visitor or caravan/camping, that suits
your intended participation in this event. Please
note that all cheques should be made payable to
"R.A.S.E.", and posted to me at the address
given on the forms.

Hants & Berks Rover Owners Club
ARC2000 - The final
countdown

very well, thanks to the hard work and enthusiasm of
our Trade and Sponsor manager, and now features:

National CCV Trial, Programme, Rally pack bags and
kids colouring competition: Land Rover World Magazine
National Comp. Safari and Marshals Tabards: Kingsley

There will also be a number of static/active

and unusual Land Rovers, the Medway Military Vehicles
Group, Radio-controlled Off-Road models, Rally Cars
from the Association of Central Southern Motor Clubs,
and maybe some large interesting green vehicles from
the local heavy mob.
As we go to press, there is still plenty of
camping space (we've planned for a 1000 spaces) and
there are still a few slots left in the entry lists
for both trials and the Comp Safari, so if you haven't
booked do it now, - it really is your last chance and
we'd hate to disappoint you.
The Gymkhana, Concours D'Elegance, Scenic drive
and trailer reversing are all being organised to take
place during the weekend on a "pay-on-the-day"
basis and we will announce timings in the rally
programme.
There is a stunning selection of very good quality
clothing available with the event logo embroidered,
all of which can be seen on the ARC2000 website (www.4x4web.co.uk/ARC2000).
It is not intended to hold a full selection at the
event itself, so please order in advance, for
collection on the weekend to guarantee the choice,
colour and size you require. To place your order or
for further details please call Jackie Pocock on
01264 710546.
The plans for a dramatic opening ceremony are
progressing, so make sure you arrive, if you can, for
the 18.30 opening show on Friday evening. Greene King
will be providing evening entertainment and liquid
refreshment throughout the weekend, and more solid
consumables will be available everyday from breakfast
to supper from a range of caterers.
The arena should be busy much of the time, with
Dog show, vehicle demonstrations, the infamous tug-o-war,
wellie throwing and a team event to " pull the
101". There will be a series of vehicle displays
and processions, as well as a "vehicles for sale"
show in the arena.
To keep the kids happy, there will be a kiddies
play area for under fives, something bouncy for the
older ones, Paint the Landie, kids races in the arena
and of course the infamous kids bike trial.
Plus, we'll have the ARC2000 Raffle Draw on Sunday
evening with some great prizes including some very
generous donations from Goodyear and Pete Wilford.
The www.4x4web.co.uk/ARC2000 website has all the
latest news and views, and will be kept updated up to
and throughout the event. See the website for maps,
accommodation, what's-on, clothing, SR's and all
other things ARC2000! For more information, call
Maureen Ridden for entries on 01794 514834 or general
enquiries on 01264 710546.
By the time this reaches you it will be just 2 or
3 weeks to go and counting.........so hope to see you
all at ARC 2000! .
Ashley Pocock - Event Director
ARC 2000
International Rally - Concours event
Those of us who have read "Land Rover Monthly"
(LRM) April issue and ARC News March issue will now
be left in no doubt that this year, both ARC and
Hants & Berks Rover Owners Club are very
supportive of not only the "non-competitive"
interest generally, but also the Concours D'Elegance
event at the International Rally. It is worth
mentioning here that this year will not be a "one-off"
either - the host club for the 2001 International
Rally (Cornwall & Devon LRC) tell me that they,
too, want to see a greater involvement in the rally
from "non-competitive members", and will
run a concours event embracing both Land Rover
Products and Rover cars next year. LRM unfortunately
used my old list of Trophies, which did not include
the Rover Sports Register Cup for best Rover car in
the concours. The working vehicle class for Land
Rover products has been expanded to two classes, each
with a first and second place trophy. One class will
cover original condition working vehicles and the
other the everyday working vehicle without judging on
originality.
So it is entirely without apology for the
repetition, that I exhort ARC members to attend the
rally, either camping with us, or taking advantage of
the favourable day visitor rates of £5 per car per
single day or £10 per car for the whole 3 days. An
entry into the concours on the Sunday, either in the
Working Vehicle section (Land Rover Products) or the
traditional concours classes covering both Land Rover
Products and Rover cars, would be even better!

PROPOSED
NEW CLUB FOR LAND ROVER DISCOVERY OWNERS
The same handful of enthusiasts who put together a
successful display at last years A.R.C, "All
Rover Weekend" at Stoneleigh have decided, with
a little help from their friends, that the time has
come to launch a new club for owners of the Discovery,
are you interested?
Launched in 1989 as Land Rovers first foray into
the 'Lifestyle 4x4' market, with its stylish looks
and ability to seat 7, powered by the economical new
Tdi engine, it was an instant success. During this
relatively short life to date (by Land Rover
standards!) it has also established itself as a fine
off-roader and workhorse. For 8 of its 10 years it
has been the mainstay of the Camel Trophy, in jungles
and deserts all over the world, always with the Tdi
and always with great success. The emergency services
have also adopted it (sometimes with a 16" 'stretch')
along with military users and roadside rescue
services. For these commercial users the combination
of a practical spacious body, married to rugged Land
Rover greasy bits and rounded off with an economical
and powerful diesel engine, provided a whole new
experience.
As with the Range Rover before it, the vast
majority of owners during the early years were not
the traditional enthusiasts of the marque. In fact,
for a large number of these early owners, Discovery
was probably their first introduction to life with a
4x4, having defected from more conventional estate
cars to deliver Land Rovers marketing objective. Now,
after the introduction of the 300 series (face-lifted)
Series IA, and more recently the 'same but different'
Series II, many of the earlier Series I vehicles are
selling at prices within the reach of a greater
number of Land Rover 'nuts'.
This means two things.
* Firstly a whole new group of traditional
enthusiasts are now able to savour that historically
elusive combination of a damn good off-roader, a
practical 'family friendly body style' and an engine
which won't break the bank every time you turn the
ignition key.
* Secondly, a new generation of drivers are being
introduced to the Land Rover Experience for the first
time, because a second-hand Discovery is now an
affordable alternative to a super-mini or family
hatchback when the time comes to replace the aging
family battle wagon.
The Discovery Club doesn't exist yet, and it won't do
unless you help to create it. So, do you want to be
in at the start of what could be the next big Land
Rover Club?
To register your interest as a potential member, even
better if you've got some skills or experience of
starting and running a club, please send an SAE to
John Capewell, Seasons, Porth-y-Green Close,
Llanblethian, Cowbridge, Vale of Glamorgan CF71 7JR,
or email John.Capewell@tesco.net.
CAPTAIN
JOHN WILSON - NORH WALES LAND ROVER CLUB
We are very sorry to inform you of the death of
Captain John Wilson, from Bangor, North Wales.
John was N.W.L.R.C.'s Rescue Representative and
Sunday Scenic Drive Organiser, and also a very active
Committee Member.
John passed away whilst driving an RTVT section in
Harlech, North Wales, on Sunday 9th April. John was
an avid trialer and, if it can be any consolation to
his family, his last moments were spent doing
something he thoroughly enjoyed.
Our deepest sympathy goes out to John's wife Linda,
and the whole family. John will be missed very much
by all at N.W.L.R.C.

COMPETITION
NEWS _ URGENT SAFETY INFORMATION FROM MSA -15/3/00
TO ALL
EVENT OFFICIALS, COMPETITORS AND CLUB COMMITTEES
We have been advised that due to an accident the
following safety precautions must be implemented
immediately.
A STOP across the line or the use of a 'box' to
stop in at the end of a Comp. Safari SHOULD NOT be
used.
When crossing the finishing line (Competitive Safari,
Hill Rally), a run off area of at least 100m should
be taped off on both sides of the course to allow for
a deceleration run off area.
Vehicles should not stop, park or loiter in this area
(other competitors will be behind you). Competitors
should not remove helmets or release seat belts until
they have cleared the area and then 5mph should be
enforced. Failure to implement these safety
precautions could invalidate your permit for the
event.
Please do not forget to double tape the finish
area to keep spectators well clear.
The clerk of the course will also keep in mind to
use the natural terrain and obstacles to slow the
competitors down as they cross the finishing line. Do
not have a fast finish and a 90-degree bend on the
line.
It has also been pointed out that non-competitive
vehicles should not be in the competition area. All
marshals and recovery vehicles should be positioned
by the clerk of the course in safe areas.
If you require further information, contact the ARC
scrutineering committee who will advise you.
When we have further information, we will inform
you through your club or through ARC NEWS.
We have been advised by Ian Davis MSARAC Off Road
Committee to inform you of these recommendations as
quickly as possible.

Please
Note - ARC News Distribution
Just a reminder that address updates
are only done three times per year. The closing dates
for clubs to send information are 1st March, 1st July
and 1st November. If you change your address you need
to ensure your club has registered your change of
address and has then passed that change on in your
club's next update to the ARC. The responsibility for
getting any change of address to the ARC rests with
your club. Any club, which has missed two updates,
will be removed from the circulation list until a new
address update is received. Please be aware that with
the exception of duplicates, (which may arise if you
belong to more than one club) all address errors
should be directed towards your club. With a
circulation list of over 10,000 addresses, the ARC
cannot handle address changes. Club member address
lists/updates to Andrew Neaves please - address as
above in previous item. Thank you.
