The "Land Rover" was certainly one of the most famous symbols of "Made in England" on four wheels and is a real milestone in the history of off road vehicles. Born after the war (the first prototypes were done in 1947) to meet both civilian and military tasks. Inspired, though not directly, by the American Jeep, it was characterized by 4-wheel drive and a strong and reliable frame to tackle the most difficult and demanding trails. The 109 inch "long wheel base" version has been used by British Special Air Service from the second half of the '70s. During operations in a desert environment the Land Rover took the typical "pink panther" camouflage color, earning the nickname "Pinkie" by S.A.S. members.
