Oxford Diecast 76RCL002 1/76 Range Rover Classic Darien Gap

 

A 1:76 scale replica of the British Trans-Americas Expedition vehicle, its detail is astounding. Registered VXC 868K from 1971-2, its dark blue body colour with tan interior is complemented with a white masked roof with the Expedition name and route - Alaska to Cape Horn 1971-2 also printed white. That's where the fun starts! The remaining extensive decoration is devoted to sponsors with Rover featuring prominently on the front doors and other diverse names from Heinz to Halfords printed in a wealth of colour covering every available surface. Fully equipped for the adventure, we see two ladders and spare wheels fixed to the roof and some hefty looking bull bars across the front grille with attached spotlights. The team were obviously fully prepared for the unexpected!
