UP FOR AUCTION: A 1957 Series One 4x2 and a 1969 Series IIA 88in are coming up for sale at an auction taking place at Ascot Racecourse on March 01, 2025. Commenting on the Series One, Stewart Banks of Historics Auctioneers said: “This 1957 Series One is hugely collectible, coming to sale for the first time in 40 years and in storage for 30 of them. And of course it’s a very rare two-wheel drive model developed for the British Army."
On the Series IIA, Stewart said: : “We are privileged to bring this restored example to sale after 50 years in Kenya, thanks to its British Army custodian who clearly appreciated the significance of these venerable classics. It's full of character and, to many, it represents the golden age of Land Rover.”
