Introduction

He began his career in 1948 as a meager tool for farmers and foresters. But over the decades, the iconic Land Rover not only conquered even the most remote corners of the world, but even succeeded in our latitudes as a lifestyle vehicle at the end of its career - without ever having given up its rustic-pragmatic character. During his service (built until 2016), the Briton repeatedly underwent technical and optical modifications that kept him fresh over the years - but his design remained largely the same until the end. In total, more than two million vehicles were produced by the end of production.
