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, having covered
the 80-inch model last year in Factory-Original Land
Rover Series I, 80-inch Models, this substantial second
book is dedicated to the longer wheelbase 86-109-inch
models. 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.
This broad and versatile model range was regularly
updated in both major and minor ways as improvements
became necessary or suggested themselves. The
changes make a fascinating subject of study in its own
right, and it is those changes that lie at the heart of this
book. For owners and enthusiasts who aim to restore one
of these models to its original, ex-factory specification, its
pages aim to identify all the changes that were made on
the assembly lines, wherever possible not only recording
what happened but also why.
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 for
an accurate and satisfying restoration. In this book,
enthusiast and leading Land Rover historian James
Taylor is your guide to the multiple changes in
specification that affected the 1953-1956 86-inch, 1953-
1958 107-inch, and 1956-1958 88-inch and 109-inch
