1956 Land Rover Series 1 80 | Kidderminster, Worcestershire

The Land Rover Series 1 is the compact British four-wheel-drive vehicle that grew out of post-war farm work, liked for its plain, practical character. Flat aluminium panels and an upright, open-looking body give it a working look that reads as countryside Britain. This 1956 car is painted heritage green, with a minimalist green interior in the spirit of 1950s utility vehicles. It is in excellent condition and carries seven, so a full group can sit together in the vehicle. The flat-sided body gives photographers and stylists clean lines and period character for fashion and editorial work. On film and TV sets it can stand in for post-war Britain or a remote working landscape, and its farm-vehicle roots suit outdoor events in fields and farmyards. For weddings it makes a distinctive arrival at a barn venue. The car is based in Kidderminster, Worcestershire.
