1966 Land Rover Series II Hot Wheels 1:64










From Fandom:
The Land Rover is a series of compact British off-road vehicles, produced from 1948 to 1985 in a number of different series iterations. The Land Rover was the first mass-produced four-wheel drive vehicle with doors on it and uses a sturdy full box-welded frame.
The Series IIA was the third iteration of the Land Rover series models and is considered by many as the most hardy of the series. It was produced from 1961 to 1971.
This casting depicts a restored Land Rover Series II pickup with the windshield folded down and a surfboard over the passenger seat; it will always feature a multispoked spare tire no matter what the main wheel type is. The windshield is part of the dashboard. In the rear a pair of flip-flops and a wrench can be found. In development this casting was named the 1966 Land Rover Series IIA 88.
From the back of the 2023 card:
Born: 1966, England
Designer: Rover Company
Cruise along the coast or drive through some sand dunes in this iconic vehicle. Featuring a Range Rover 3.5-liter V8 motor squeezed under the hood and exposed side exhausts, it's a total head turner.

1997 Land Rover Defender 110 Matchbox 1:64










After a continuous run of 67 years production finally ended on 29 January 2016, after a total of just over two million Land Rover Series and Defender models had been built. The two millionth unit was assembled with the help of a special team in May 2015, and charitably auctioned for the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent (IFRC) Societies later that year. The last Land Rover Defender, rolled off the production line, with the number plate H166 HUE, a reference to the first ever pre-production Land Rover, registration 'HUE 166'.

A special edition Defender Works V8, with 400 bhp (298 kW), was announced in January 2018. Until 2020 the Defender was last sold in the US in 1997, after which safety regulations prohibited its sale in North America.

An all-new 2020 Land Rover Defender made its global debut in September 2019 and is initially offered with two wheelbase options. This new vehicle, which shares no components or technology with its predecessor, has an aluminium monococque body.

Land Rover Defender 90 Hot Wheels 1:64










The Land Rover Defender (originally called simply Land Rover Ninety, and later called the Land Rover Ninety and Land Rover One Ten) is a British off-road vehicle. It has four-wheel drive, and was developed in the 1980s from the original Land Rover series which was launched at the Amsterdam Motor Show in April 1948.

The vehicle (a British equivalent of the Second World War Willys Jeep) gained a worldwide reputation for ruggedness and versatility. Using a steel ladder chassis and an aluminium alloy bodywork, the Land Rover originally used detuned versions of Rover engines. The original Defender is still being produced in developing countries despite the arrival of the Land Rover Defender (L663).
