Land Rover Series 3 Classic Car Hire
About the Land Rover Series 3
The Land Rover Series 3 Coast Guard Edition is a true British icon – rugged, charming, and rich in history. Originally built in the 1970s and specially adapted for use by HM Coastguard, this distinctive 4x4 was designed to tackle the toughest coastal terrain in all conditions. With its striking blue and white livery, classic boxy design, and no-nonsense attitude, it’s a vehicle that tells a story the moment it rolls into view.
From its heritage roots to its capable off-road presence, the classic Land Rover Series 3 brings a sense of nostalgia, adventure, and authenticity that’s hard to find in modern vehicles. If you’re searching for vintage Land Rover hire with genuine provenance, the Coast Guard Landy stands in a class of its own.
