The popular automotive blog Jalopnik has planned to honor Land Rover’s 65th Anniversary the best way it knows how - with a collection of way-cool Land Rover images that span the brand’s illustrious existence.

“The Landie was the brainchild of Rover’s chief designer Maurice Wilks, who was inspired by the Willys Jeep in 1947 to make an even tougher agricultural vehicle. Sixty six years on, you can still get your Defender with nine body styles and two wheelbases. Mr. Wilks would be proud of us.

By 1976, the British sold more than a million Land Rovers. It’s probably the most globally well known product of the British automotive industry to this very day. That’s because, like the Enterprise, this vehicle tends to go where no man has gone before.”
