Some of you may have met Arthur who at 90 years of age heads up Engineering and is the patriarch of the business. Many will not realize his involvement in the Land Rover Project back in 1948. As the leader and possibly the only remaining member of the team who gave birth to a vehicle which would change the face of off-roading for ever.

He has now had a book and DVD made of his story.
