More Prototypes

The first Series 1 prototype, 1947. Notice the original intention of the center steering column.


One of the first Stage 1 prototypes, 1976. These would become the Defender.


The first Discovery. Developed by David Evans, it was unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1989. 


And here is a green badge oddity. This is a Japanese Crossroad. Produced by Land Rover for Honda in Japan, the Crossroad was basically a badge engineered Series 1 Discovery. Notice the grille "H" badge. Blasphemy.
