The second release of Oxford's 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superseded by the Series IIA in 1961.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.
