Chairman's Chat



This site is the "one-stop shop" for information on the Austin-Morris 1800/2200 and the Wolseley 18/85 & Six – popularly known as the Landcrab – produced between 1964 and 1975.

The Landcrab Owners' Club International (LOCI) exists to increase the profile of the Landcrab range in a variety of ways:

  • Organising club rallies and other social events.

  • Showcasing the cars through stands at major British Classic car shows.

  • Sourcing and arranging for the manufacture of new supplies of spares

  • Acting as a focus for Landcrab enthusiasts around the world through the quarterly A5 sized (usually 44 page) LOCI Magazine

LOCI currently has members in the UK, Eire, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Portugal, Greece, Canada, the USA, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Australia and New Zealand.

Please take the time to look round our site and feel free to come back to us with any comments – praise, ideas for improvements, constructive criticism or brickbats are all welcome. If you need to contact a member of the committee see below.
