The AA was formed in 1905 famously meeting in the Trocadero Restaurant in London. Memberhip of the organisation grew rapidly and five years later they had patrols across the country. Intially the cycle scouts were employed at weekends to advise members of police traps ahead, but this soon changed as they began helping stranded motorists. In the late 1940's the introduction of two-way radio transformed the organisation as they were able to be contacted centrally to attend a members vehicle.
Registered PYU 15 and featuring the original AA logo style, this model - in the signature AA yellow and black colour scheme - carries a lot of decorative refinements. Note particularly the authentic Land Rover Series 1 88" grille with the marque finely picked out in silver and black. The chrome effect also extends to the window surrounds and window bars, rear flanges and lower door surround, whilst the interior detail echoes the AA golden yellow on the dashboard.
