Is there no where a Rover can't go?

The concept is very Land Rover....bits that bolt on and a vehicle that can be modified to suit the tasks. Compact, capable and customisable.

Pity the green oval isn't attached. But still a very Land Rover idea.

I only see the design study featuring a blue oval instead of a green one. Surely a mistake...

Have you seen the one for the moon mission in 2023 8 wheels i belive can turn on a kangaroo turd and moves sideways as well as backwards and forwards.
Did you know that the first moon mission buggy was a series land rover
