The 2024 edition of the Land Rover Yearbook has arrived, keen to maintain its credentials as ‘the essential annual for Land Rover owners and enthusiasts’. This year’s Yearbook includes a piece on the perfect Series IIA, an old Landy that has been renovated into a sophisticated, deluxe working vehicle with a lavish paintjob. We detail a contender for the title of ‘coolest camper’ when we get up close to RIG Automotive’s fleet of 130 ambulances, now converted to campers. These campers aren’t simply repurposed vehicles, the inspired approach taken to these transformations has resulted in serious vehicles for the top of the premium Defender market. Moving away from campers, we uncover an evolved Defender 90, built not to be shown as an exhibition piece, but to be driven flat-out as the superbly capable off-roader it is – the innovations it has been through may not please traditionalists, but the result is undoubtedly impressive. Pulling away from an ‘evolved’ Landy, we detail the remarkable 7000-mile expedition of a 1973 88" Series III Land Rover, fitted with a 2.25-litre petrol engine, bought for just £950. If that doesn’t sound crazy enough, this veteran Landy was set to drive through one of the planet’s most arid and hostile regions, all for the goal of reaching the West African nation of Liberia, with the Landy having been bought and prepped on a £2000 budget… The Land Rover Yearbook 2024 is stacked with a mountain of stories, Land Rovers, and adventures that can all be yours to read today!
