Automotive trademarks are the property of the trademark holder, authorization may be needed for some uses. --- Info: This is the very first 1948 production Land Rover, chassis number R860001. Still in existence, as an unreplacebale part of motor history, but in a very rotten condition it was displayed in 1998 at the Land Rover Series 1 Club event in Shugborough. It was registered with a Warwickshire registration number as HUE 477, giving a hint that it once was a factory vehicle. It was sold in the 50's to a farmer in a small valley. In 1970 it changed hands again for the pricey sum of 15 Pounds. In 1995 it was discovered by a small bunch of Series I buffs but not yet shown to the public.
