Brian Hartley (the 'Club Off-Road' supremo & Patrick Stewart look-alike) used to have a Leyland Martian.
He used to bring it to 'Top Farm' - the predeccesor of Langley Farm, I think he sold it to David Hoar, who owns Home Farm (the Tong off-road site)
Or was it the Stalwart that Brian sold to him?

Nice Richard
The ones we were with were the cargo, canvas backed version
Lot of memories of fully loaded 10 tonners engine cooking the left leg, full load, trying to get round Thirsk market place, my mate sitting on engine cover pulling on the steering wheel with me to get it round in one
Great, 28 mph flat out, except for when the governors blew and you got a runaway
OOOh for power steering
