Description
The second release on our 1:43 scale Land Rover Series II Short Wheelbase model is presented with a canvas back option finished in pale olive green with the body decorated in the popular British Rail crimson and cream livery of the period. Registered 903 HRO, the model represents the Land Rover launched by the company in 1958, to be superseded by the Series IIA in 1961. It was the first vehicle to use the well-known 2.25 litre petrol engine, which produced 72 hp and was closely related to the 2.0 hp diesel unit still in use today! Other early Land Rover characteristics on our model include the split windscreen and signature Land Rover radiator grille and badge. Featuring the British Railways totem and fleet numbering on both doors and exterior silver trim, final details see the interior with black seats and crimson dashboard.
