Camel Trophy events didn’t start using Land Rovers unit about 1981 or so. The first Range Rovers used were the two-door versions, which were used for about two years, after that they started using only four-door versions.
Genuine Camel Trophy Range Rovers are rare, most are recreations or replicas, as most vehicles were crushed after the off road events. Only a few manage to escape crushing and pop-up every now and then.
The Range Rovers themselves were off-the-shelf standard, with added aftermarket off road gear. Such as off road tires, winches, lights, brush guards, and so on. Later models were fitted with an aftermarket engine snorkel.
They all had full-time four-wheel drive with two-speed dual range transfer case and center differential lock. Front and rear axles were standard live axles with conventional open differentials and full floating hubs.
Rear-wheel electronic traction control would not be added unit the 1993 model year.
Land Rover switched to a BorgWarner two-speed dual range transfer case with viscous center differential lock for 1989.
