Land Rover – wheelbase in inches as the model name: 88, 109, 110 and 130, the 101 Forward Control and FFR military versions, Santana licence-build, four- to eight-cylinder engines 1,951 to 6,161 cc

Land Rover traditionally names its off-road working vehicles by wheelbase in inches – 88, 109, 110 and 130 denote the different wheelbases of Series I to III and the later Defender, with the higher numbers marking longer, often twin-rear-wheel pick-up and van versions. The 101 Forward Control is a military cab-over version with a 101-inch wheelbase, "FFR" stands for Fitted For Radio and denotes British military vehicles equipped with a radio set; Santana built the Land Rover under licence in Spain. Many of the vehicles recorded here carry a commercial N1 registration or are van versions.

The register lists 38 versions with four- to eight-cylinder engines from 1,951 to 6,161 cc, kerb weights from 1,390 to 3,000 kg, gross vehicle weights from 2,020 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,640 to 2,010 mm.

The Land Rover is regarded as one of the founders of the civilian and military off-road class in Europe and has been used worldwide by armed forces, aid organisations and in agriculture; the ranges from Series I to the Defender stand for durability and ease of repair even under adverse conditions.

When buying a used example, check for rust in the chassis frame despite the aluminium body, the condition of the sills and door bottoms, wear in the transfer case and free-wheeling hubs, and, on diesel engines, the injection pump; thanks to the long production run and large numbers built, spare parts are very well supported through both independent and brand-specific parts trade.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
