Duration: 58 minutes

Available for years

Exmoor Search and Rescue has the oldest serving Land Rover Defender on the Mountain Rescue England and Wales fleet. This 30-year-old rescue workhorse is desperately in need of refurbishing and upgrading. With thousands of hours between them driving and repairing military Land Rover Defenders, the boys are a natural choice to take on the project. With ambitious plans but tight time constraints brought about by needing to get the Land Rover back out on rescue duties, the team must burn the midnight oil.

While the Defender is away being painted, there is just enough time for self-confessed hoarder Titch and his team to clear out his lock-up that’s stuffed full of broken and half-stripped motorcycles. The plan is to get as many of the dilapidated machines running as possible and then attempt to sell them at a busy local autojumble. Show less
