One Love: Land Rover
Published Wednesday, 18 January, 2012 by Chris Roman. Categories: News.
They say Land Rovers hold their value, but one 1976 Series III Land Rover in particular, is worth more today than the day it was purchased. Bob Marley's Rover is being restored and returned to the Hope Road Museum. Land Rovers are infamous for rolling over warzones and treacherous enemy terrain, but this famous model chauffeured around peace loving, beach roaming, Bob Marley.
Adam Stewart, deputy chairman of the ATL Group, which will be restoring the vehicle, said he was pleased to be part of this historic venture, "We are deeply honored that members of the Marley family have entrusted ATL Britannia, a division of ATL Automotive, with the restoration of Bob Marley's most treasured vehicle, his Land Rover."
This legend lives on through his music around the world, so maybe next time your cruising in your Land Rover or Range Rover, roll down the window, open the sunroof and play some 'Buffalo Soldier'. It's one legend driving another.
Few Land Rovers are as famous as this one. I'm sure if Bob Marley was still with us, he'd be happily driving it on the roads of Jamaica today,' Adam Stewart concluded.
And whether you're in Marley's hometown of Montego Bay or Orlando, 2012 Range Rover Evoque SUVs are a great modern update to the 1976 Series III Land Rover. I'm sure the late great, earth-loving Rastafarian would appreciate the much improved fuel efficiency.
