Ancient Land Rover

As Land Rover completes its 70th year, they took an interesting way to celebrate the milestone.

The Land Rover has had a very interesting history. It was inspired by the success of WWII Jeeps, but was created for agricultural use initially. In fact, the very first prototypes were built using a Jeep chassis and Rover engine, but with lighter body panels using alloys.

When Land Rover was first launched in 1948, it became a sensation. Although the original purpose was agriculture, people around the world discovered that it can be used in every off-road condition.
