Rover Co. Ltd., Lode Lane, So//hull, Birmingham.

USE of the Land-Rover for various forms of public service is being demonstrated on Stand 71. The selection of units displayed includes a military vehicle that can be stripped of much of its bodywork to simplify transport by air, a fire tender and an ambulance. The new military model is a lOcwt, 88in.-wheelbase design that has been developed in conjunction with the British Fighting Vehicles Research and Development Establishment to meet the special airlift requirements of the Forces. Hood, body sides, doors, screen, bumpers and spare wheel can quickly be removed when transport by air is necessary. On a 109in.-chassis there is a Lomas ambulance conversion with a glasi-reinforced plastics body built to increased height to accommodate four stretchers. The red-painted HCB/Angus Firefly appliance is also on a 109in.-chassis and at the rear carries a pump with 350-400 g.p.m. capacity.
