Here's a well known person in the UK. It's 'Martin Osborne Johnson' CBE a former rugby union footballer who represented and captained England and Leicester.




Here's a movie.



What's the place and what specific vehicle links them together is the question?

Haha dread.. I get it :).

It's good, but it's not right I'm afraid.

Keep em coming. You can have as many guesses as you like. :)

Out of interest, what was 'your thinking' that led you to this guess?

I'll have to give you a 'half right' for this. It's a superb line of thinking that took it even further that I did. I'll post up a comprehensive answer as soon as the nails been hit on the head by someone. :)

Good enough. :)

The place:- Solihull, Martin Johnsons' place of birth. Also, the home of Landrover, UK.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Johnson_(rugby_union)

Landrover - A brief history:- http://www.solihull-online.com/landrover-h.htm

The Movie:- No prizes for that one - Judge Dredd.

The Vehicle link:- A futuristic Judge Dredd Police vehicle used in the movie and personally guarded by me and my superb GSD security dog 'Kebo' (rip) at Lode lane, Solihull. You'd be surprised what reporters / photographers get paid for pics.



It's a chassis 101 landrover. Also known as a one ton landrover by the UK armed forces. More info, history and pics here;-
http://www.101club.org/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=61

How it was rigged up for the movie. Here;-

Further info of interest from PQD44:-
David Woodhouse one of Jerry McGovern's designers designed both the Supersport Mark One and the futuristic vehicles used in the Judge Dredd Movie amongst many other cars for other manufacturers.



Back over to you then PQD44. Good work Paul. :)

ok, not as cryptic as the last challenge but visually very interesting.







This poor MGF, looks like they would definitely need to make an adjustment for temp if setting the ride height.


So where is it. The location has a special significance regarding the MGF
