Land Rover Half-Ton Lightweight 4x4 88" Series III véhicule militaire 1982

Châssis n° SALLBBAH2AA176255

Moteur n° 951224700

Les frères Wilks, patrons de Rover, avaient pressenti la nécessité d'un véhicule utilitaire rustique à quatre roues motrices, destiné à subvenir aux besoins agricoles dans les années de l'immédiat après-guerre. Étant donné qu'elle était inspiré de la Jeep utilisée pendant la guerre, cela ne dut pas surprendre Rover quand leur petit véhicule polyvalent se mit à intéresser l'armée britannique qui commença à prendre livraison un an ou deux après le début de la production en 1948. Parfaitement adaptable aux besoins de l'armée, le Land Rover a rempli de nombreux et différents rôles militaires, de véhicule de combat à ambulance, et a été exporté dans de nombreux pays du monde.

Dévoilé avec la série IIA, le modèle désigné « lightweight » (d'une demie tonne) avait été spécialement conçu pour être transporté par les hélicoptères alors en service dans les forces armées britanniques, la principale modification par rapport au modèle de série étant l'étroitisation du véhicule de 101,6 mm, afin de pouvoir en transporter deux de front, tandis qu'une large part de la carrosserie avait été rendue démontable. La mise au point d'avions et d'hélicoptères de transport plus grands et plus puissants avait rendu caduque les modèles « lightweight », mais l'armée appréciait la simplicité de ce modèle démontable et il fut adopté comme version standard du Land Rover militaire à empattement court.

Entièrement restauré entre 2016 et 2017, en provenance d'une éminente collection privée belge, cet exemplaire est vendu avec un manuel d'instruction et ses papiers d'immatriculation ancienne (hollandaise) et actuelle (belge).

Rover bosses, the Wilks brothers, saw the need for a tough, four-wheel-drive, utility vehicle to serve the needs of the agricultural community in the immediate post-war years. Given that its inspiration had been the wartime Jeep, it cannot have surprised Rover when their versatile vehicle also turned out to be of interest to the British Army, which began taking deliveries a year or two after the start of production in 1948. Supremely adaptable for military purposes, the Land Rover has fulfilled any number of differing military roles, from fighting vehicle to ambulance, and been exported to countless countries worldwide.

Introduced on the Series IIA, the so-called lightweight (½ ton) model was specially adapted for transportation by the helicopters then in service with Britain's Armed Forces, the principal departure from standard specification being a narrowing of the vehicle by 4" (101.6mm), enabling it to be carried two abreast in air transport, while much of the body was made de-mountable. Development of larger and more powerful transport aircraft and helicopters soon made the 'lightweight' specification redundant, but the British Army appreciated the model's stripped-down simplicity and it was adopted as the standard short-wheelbase military Land Rover.

Fully restored between 2016 and 2017 and offered from a prominent Belgian private collection, this example comes with an instruction manual and its previous (Dutch) and current (Belgian) registration papers.
