The Land Rover Series 1 - the first Land Rover - marked the debut of the famous Land Rover brand. It gained global acclaim for its ruggedness and usefulness in farming, construction and the military. The legendary Series 1 set the stage for Land Rover's enduring off-road vehicle market success and laid the foundation for its legacy.
The Land Rover project was initiated by Maurice Wilks (chief designer at Rover Company) shortly after World War II. The Series 1 was unveiled at the Amsterdam Motor Show in 1948 and was initially offered in two versions: a 2-door model and a 4-door model (known as the Station Wagon). A real tough, go-anywhere, all-terrain workhorse!
Did you know that the original Land Rover Series 1 used surplus aircraft paint from World War II on its early models? The paint was readily available and helped to keep production costs down during the postwar era. As a result, many early Land Rovers were painted in various shades of military green, giving them a distinct and practical appearance.
When Land Rover Series 1 production ended in 1958, the vehicle had established the marque as a symbol of British engineering excellence and adventure.
As a UK-based worldwide specialist in supplying parts and accessories for Land Rover cars, Rimmer Bros can help you restore, maintain and improve your Land Rover Series 1. We share the same passion as the customers we serve for keeping Land Rovers going both on and off-road.
We pride ourselves on offering a superior, expert parts service that is both fast and reliable - helping Land Rover owners, garages and other specialists across the world know what parts they are buying and which part best suits their needs and budget.
Wherever possible, Rimmer Bros supplies genuine original (Land Rover boxed) parts from Land Rover. Rimmer Bros also stocks OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts - the genuine part but not Land Rover branded and boxed. We also provide high-quality aftermarket (reproduction) parts from third-party manufacturers as an alternative to the OEM equivalent.
When it comes to car parts, some are VIN specific. Information on these can be found on the item page. If you are unsure on the vehicle application of any parts, please contact us quoting your full Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
