I've seen the one with "Rover Australia Pty Ltd" on it before, but the "Birmingham England" badge is a new one to me.

where do you think Solihull is?

Aaaahhhh ......... I think I know where they make em. Just saying that I haven't seen that particular badge before.

[mools]

The Birmingham England one is an OLD, OLD badge (I think could only have been on a Series One). They're worth a fair bit of coin in the UK.

G'day All,
I'm certain the oval badge with Solihull was fitted to the grille on Series 1's first, but not being a serious S1 fan I could be wrong, watch out though cause collecting the oval can be as big a problem as collecting/restoring Series Land Rovers, here are some of my badges LOL

It was part of Bimingham, until Solihull became too posh and didn't want to be associated with Birmingham any more.:D

So you're the reason that I've got 4 Land Rovers with no badges! ;)

Knowing very little about these older badges are they cast or pressed metal?

[Lotz-A-Landies]

The pre-production had cast bronze,
the production 80" had cast aluminium until late 1950
the 1951 had the pressed aluminium "Birmingham" "England" badge which continued to SII
UK Production SIIa had "Solihull Warwickshire" "England" pressed aluminium.
Australian Production SIIa had a variety of Rover Australia Pty Ltd pressed aluminium. The early ones with tight edges and the later fatter curved edges to the letters.
SIII had plain Badges without identity (except.)
South African production SIII had "Leyland" "South Africa" pressed aluminium.
Spanish production Land Rover's had a variety of "Santana" pressed aluminium badges until they devolved into Santana and now Iveco Mastiff.
Iranian production Land Rovers had a different badge but I'm at a loss on this.

You missed - Minerva had their own badge with a small Landrover oval incorporated, and Tempo, again with their own badge with the Landrover logo below it, but this time without the surrounding oval. Pictures of both in John Smith.

These are the variants that exist, not including the other of Minerva in the photo of Sleepy. Have I got it by buying online or doing exchanges with fans. With Dinty of Australia,Bernard in Belgium or George in South Africa. Also see a Land Rover logo cut, that's the Tempo Land Rover to manufacture on the basis of a badge with the inscription as Birmingham made ​​him the German manufacturer, for which only need to find a logo to add Tempo and complete. There are also three versions of Santana, a silkscreen and more known, who used to fade with time, another version of pressed aluminum with the original form of the oval and rectangular one that came out in recent years.

Well, that's all I could find and enter the name Land Rover.

Muchas Gracias Yuanpedro. That's a lovely collection. I love the early cast version.
