Just wrapping-up a week in Antigua and happy to report that Rovers abound out here. Saw lots of Defenders and D1s as well as the occassional D2 and Freelander. Went for an island tour in a TD5 110 5 door (nice ride, smooth power) plus checked-out a very cool factory approved LR3 ambulance conversion with a turbo diesel V6 and some funky 130s used to haul cruise ship tourists. Great place for Rovers out here, rum isn't bad either!

Here is a link to a few pics. The 110 and LR3 are used by a group called ABSAR which is a volunteer ambulance and marine search and rescue organization. The 110 is kitted out with ground rescue gear and communications while the LR3 carries full medical gear, O2, backboard, AED and a stretcher.

Thanks for posting the photos up.
Interesting to see how well the stretcher / cot fits into the back of the LR3! Make a nice bed for camping with lots of room for equipment and still has 3 seats!
