1992 Land Rover - Discovery

Description del vehiculo

Finished in Sandglow Yellow with a beige cloth interior. This Discovery was commissioned by Land Rover Special Vehicles to compete in the 1992 edition of the Camel Trophy held in Guyana. It was piloted 1,600 kilometers (roughly 1,000 miles) from Manaus, Brazil, to Georgetown, Guyana, by Team USA and captured the Team Spirit Award that year. Said to be imported shortly after the conclusion of the 1992 event, it's equipped with a metric instrument cluster, and the odometer shows about 29,700 kilometers, which represents approximately 18,500 miles.This Discovery was heavily modified at Land Rover's Special Installations division, and features Hella off-road lighting, a Brownchurch front bumper and push bar, a Warn winch, Mantec snorkel, a roof rack with a full complement of recovery gear, heavy-duty springs and shocks, upgraded half-shafts, skid plates, and much more as detailed below. The inaugural Camel Trophy event kicked off in 1980 deep in the jungles of Brazil, and featured a trio of German teams driving South American-built Jeeps. Over the next 18 years however, Land Rover vehicles were exclusively used for the event, with Discoveries making an appearance for eight of those. They competed in harsh and unforgiving environments including deserts, jungles, and tundra, covering vast distances with little more than the skill and wit of their drivers and what they carried onboard for the duration of the journey.Power comes from a 2.5-liter turbodiesel inline-4, rated at 111 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. Output is sent to the rear or all four wheels through a 5-speed manual transmission and a part-time 2-speed transfer case.
