  1. Unknown Facts about the Land Rover

  2. Chances are you know that Land Rovers got their start as the British version of the Jeep and that they were owned by BMW for a while. Here are a few things you probably didn't know about the Land Rover.

  3. BEGINNING OF LAND ROVERS Land Rovers have been built since 1948, becoming the second oldest four-wheel-drive vehicles in automotive history after Jeeps. They sponsored the ultimate college joyride. LR used to provide trucks for students from Oxford and Cambridge to drive across continents to places like Singapore and the Sahara, “for the sake of learning.”

  4. STEERING WHEEL IN THE MIDDLE Land The first Land Rover had the steering wheel in the middle. It was modeled after WWII-era Jeeps because the designer had used one of these Jeeps on his farm in Wales. To keep things simple and more tractor-like, the designer put the steering wheel in the middle.

  5. FIRST JET ENGINES The father of Land Rover's larger offspring, the Range Rover, was a jet engine-designing badass. After WWII, Charles S. King worked with Rolls Royce and helped them develop their first jet engines.

  6. FIRST MONSTER TRUCK They also invented the Monster Truck 30 years before anyone else. Land Rover bolted on four tractor tires and some beefy axles from a Studebaker to a Series IIA, thereby giving birth to the first monster truck.

  7. CAMEL TROPHY Land Rover dominated the Camel Trophy, which included treks across places like Siberia, the Amazon, Tierra del Fuego, and the Australian Outback, with vehicles that were mostly stock.
