The record
Bob and Joe Ives won the 1989 Amazon Camel Trophy in this One Ten turbo-diesel station wagon. This model follows the period finish photograph published by Land Rover MENA: crew names and small Union flags on the wings, a large flag on the left-front aerial, bonnet spare, loaded roof rack and recovery equipment. Museum photography corroborates the door markings, rear spare, rack and sand ladders. The clean procedural model does not reproduce every dent or temporary mud deposit. The registration is not legible in the supplied photographs and is not invented. The museum display logs are not vehicle equipment. The shared 1989 fleet equipment is retained, with the team-specific markings isolated to this variant.
