A classic military Jeep is entered into the Charterhouse auction of classic cars at the Haynes Motor Museum on Thursday 27th March, with the owner kindly donating the proceeds of sale to the Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance.
“The owner bought the Jeep from us nearly 20 years ago.” Commented Richard Bromell. “Whilst he has enjoyed owning the Jeep he has not used it since 2020 and decided to auction it and give the proceeds to this worthy charity.”
