Razdelitev vozil Land Rover po modelih:
By Series
Land Rover began in 1947 with the Series I and continued
until 1985 manufacturing the Series III model. This identification
was initiated by Land Rover as a means of identifying
major design changes in production. They did not intend to
change them on an annual basis. The designers felt that they
had this "agricultural workhorse" so right from the start, that
annual cosmetic styling would only detract from its functional
applications.
By wheel base
Land Rover wheel base is measured from the hub center of the
front wheel to the hub center of the rear. (example: model 88 is
88" from hub center to hub center). The exception being the
90 which is actually 92.9" wheel base.
Birth of a Legend
The prototype Land Rover built September 1947 featured a
center steering wheel, negating the need to build RHD and
LHD models. The vehicle was essentially a U.S. built Jeep with
a Rover designed aluminum skinned body. Rover car engine
and main gearbox. It was scrapped in the spring of 1948.
1948 pre-production Land Rovers were built in the first half of
1948. As the last of the pilot built vehicles were being finished,
production vehicles were already coming off an adjacent
assembly line.
Series I - 1948 into 1958. First production Land Rovers
were 1.6 litre petrol 80" wheel base. 1952 engine displacement
was increased to 2.0 litres. 1954 the wheel base was lengthened
to 86 inches and the first long wheel base 107" pickup was
introduced. 1956 86" and 107" were lengthened to 88" and
109" and the 2.0 litre diesel became available as an option.
Series II - 1958 thru 1960. All new body designed by
Rover's styling department. A more powerful 2.25 litre petrol
engine is introduced for improved performance. Available in
88" and 109" wheel base and a broader range of colours.
Series IIA - 1961 into 1971. 88" and 109" wheel base.
1962 2.25 diesel and the Forward Control model introduced.
Positive earth electrics until 1967. Fall of 1967, Land Rover
introduces the 2.6 litre, 6 cylinder station wagon and Ser. IIB
110 forward control. Land Rovers are now in negative earth with
single wiper motor mounted in dash. 1968 air portable 88" for
military purposes is developed. 1969, headlights are moved
from the center radiator grille to the side wings. 1971, Forward
Control production ended.
Series III - Fall of 1971 to 1984. Revised fascia with black
plastic safety dash. Instruments moved in front of driver, fully
synchronized gearbox, and plastic radiator grille. 1972 Land
Rover introduces its V8 powered 101" Forward Control. In 1979
Land Rover introduces its V8 109” Regular and 109” Station
Wagon models. In 1982 Land Rover introduces its 109” High
Capacity Pickup.
110 - 1983 to present. All new coil spring suspension with
full time 4WD from the Range Rover design is incorporated into
the 109 body styles. Available in a 2.5 petrol, 2.5 diesel, V8
petrol carburetted or fuel injected and a 200Tdi turbo diesel. 5
speed manual gearbox is standard. First imported to the USA for
the 1993 model year. 1994, improved 300 TDI diesel becomes
standard engine with only the V8 offered as optional.
90 - 1984 to present. A smaller version of the 110 with a 93"
wheelbase, it replaced the series III 88" lineup. Shares the same
engine and gearbox options as the 110.
130 - Introduced in 1985. A 127" wheelbase version of the
110. Aimed at the commercial market it is ideally suited for special
body conversions. Also offered in six wheel drive. After manufacture
most 130s are finished at Land Rover’s Special Ve h i c l e
Operations facility at Solihull. Here 130s are completed to the
c u s t o m e r ’s own design and specification.
