Model history

The Land Rover LJ88 embodies the synthesis of refined elegance and indestructible working power. The vehicle is characterized by exceptional off-road capability. Its superior off-road capability enables it to traverse even the most demanding terrain, often literally anchoring its wheels to the ground. A Land Rover LJ88 in its original condition is therefore a rarity of considerable value. The ruggedness is flanked by four-wheel drive and a powerful 64 hp engine, which work in perfect harmony to ensure impressive performance. Just under 45,000 of the 3rd generation Land Rover LJ88 were produced by 1975.
