Description
If you've worked for the AA and collect diecast vehicles, you might like our Oxford Diecast AA Land Rover 80 inch. As you may already know, the AA was formed in 1905 and had patrols across the country by 1910. At first, cycle scouts were employed at weekends to warn members of police traps ahead, but this soon changed as they began helping stranded motorists. The introduction of two-way radios transformed the organisation as they could be contacted centrally to attend a member's vehicle.
More about the AA Land Rover 80 inch
The first Land Rover prototype was built in the summer of 1947, and all the early prototypes had a tractor-like centrally-mounted steering wheel. This was done to save money building separate left- and right-hand drive models for export. However, by the time the production Land Rover appeared in 1948, the centre-steer idea had been scrapped. The Land Rover range was improved and expanded over the years to meet customers (both civilian and military) demands, and to exploit gaps in the market.
