It was back in 1996 that James Taylor’s book Original Land Rover Series I was first published, and it has been
in print and in constant demand ever since. In recent years James has been engaged in further research and the
gathering of new information for a much larger and more detailed work about the Series I, so this substantial
new book is dedicated to the 80-inch models alone, with the Series Is on other wheelbases to come in a later
volume. The aim remains the same as it was for the 1996 book: to provide a detailed guide to correct factory
specification and equipment for all models.
With the aid of Simon Clay’s photography of some superb examples of the marque, correct details are shown
on both complete vehicles and on some under restoration to give the dedicated enthusiast the knowledge
needed. In this book, leading Land Rover historian James Taylor is your guide to the multiple changes in specification that affected the 80-inch Land Rovers built between 1948 and 1953
