“The Nameless one”, the Jaguar XK150 — Car number 7

January 9, 2018 //  by Global Rally//  2 Comments

Gerry and Corrie don’t have a name for their Jaguar XK150 DHC so she’s been nicknamed “the nameless one” for this rally.

Not that this rally is the car’s first either, far from it.   The first one  was a Winter Trial from Maastrict to Monte Carlo in February 2001 shortly after Gerry and Corrie bought her.  Gerry and Corrie did this trip a few times before deciding that summer touring might be more their cup of tea and got involved with the GRO.   They are now firmly part of the group’s backbone.

Since then “the nameless one” has really clocked up the miles having been in Australia and Tasmania, Argentina , a tour through Scandinavia and St Petersburg and four of the Global Rallies (all of them in fact except the first).

We look forward to adding Indochina to this list!

    I will be fascinated to see what name you attribute to my lovely Land Cruiser!

Who are the GRO?

We are a non-profit making organisation created for people who relish a challenge and an interest in classic cars. Combining these two things allows our members to explore the world.
The charge for all rallies will be “at cost”, save for a pre-stated administration fee for organising the event and the shared cost of the service / medical crew. We are able to do this as we will also be participating in the adventure and the countries are ones we wish to visit.
