SUMMARY
Sold directly from Land Rover to our vendor in 1994 after it completed the 1993 Camel Trophy in Sabah, Malaysia. A genuine factory-prepared expedition vehicle that is essentially original but is now in need of some TLC.
DESCRIPTION
- The 'Camel Trophy' originated in 1980 with three Jeep-equipped German teams exploring the Amazon Basin. After that first event, the organisers turned to Land Rover for support and the tobacco company, Camel, for primary sponsorship
- Over the course of the next 20 years, all of the Land Rover vehicle ranges were used - Range Rover, Land Rover Series III, Land Rover 90, Land Rover 110, Land Rover Defender, Land Rover Discovery and Freelander, with all vehicles appearing in the distinctive Camel 'Sandglow' colour scheme and were specially adapted for their role
- Some competitors purchased their vehicles and many remained in the host country. Consequently, those vehicles that returned to the UK are highly sought after having covered 'Camel Trophy miles'
- A genuine Land Rover-prepared Defender utilised as a medical support vehicle to the lead Discovery vehicles on the 1993 Camel Trophy in Sabah, Malaysia
- Bought directly from Land Rover in 1994 by our vendor (original invoice confirms), who was an LR employee, then with just 2,000 miles and subsequently used as his family vehicle for the next 20-plus years, now with a mere 112,000 miles
- Lots of original off-road equipment, including the unique Safety Devices internal/external roll-cage, snorkel and winch, but sadly not its Brownchurch roof-rack
- Regularly serviced by our engineer vendor and routinely garaged, but was 'parked-up' a few years ago - now in need of restoration but is a very worthy candidate – any inspection is very welcome
