What actually constitutes a Land Rover?

Hi!

At what point do you stop owning a Land Rover and become the owner of a hybrid?

Patrol front ends. Landcruiser rear ends. Pajero this and yada yada!

What do you reckon?

the day you replace the badge
no matter what you retro fitt the heart still beats pommy blood

I take it in the same light as other commercial vehicles. While the body and chassis rails are of the original marque it remains.

You don't stop calling a Kenworth a Kenworth, if it has a GMC, engine, an Allison transmission, Hendrickson suspension or Eaton diffs. Same with a Ford truck or even a Mack who make their own engines.

So it is with a Land Rover. (Even if it hasn't got it's badge!:D)

Addit: I'm not sure it would still be a Land Rover if you fitted too many Yada Yada's .... :D;)

seconded, as long as you dont replace the firewall and primary body works (from the radiator to the rearmost seat) its a landy...

If you custom make a chassis to replace one then its still a landy.
