It's the tough new forward control Land-Rover, in flat bed, fixed side or drop side versions. And it's designed to do jobs nothing else can do.

For one thing it carries three times the volume of normal control vehicles. For another those big fat tyres, plus a new low compression 2.6 litre petrol engine* give you the power and the traction to hump a 2800 lb payload across the roughest territory you can find.

Without complaint. And as you clear the ground by a good 10" you can go over things you'd otherwise have to go around. What's more, on civilized roads, you can breeze along at a snappy 60 m.p.h. with a full payload of 3300 lb.

For years people have been saying it was impossible to improve the versatility of Land-Rover. While they talked, we acted. And proved we could. Put one to the test, and prove it yourself. From £1,174.

*also available the famous 2,+, litre diesel engine.
