I worked on that fire truck when I was a mechanic at Marshalls in Cambridge.

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

That's amazing, it's such an interesting car and piece of history. We are very honoured to have been one of it's owners. What was it like to work on?

[@SmR8008]

@@FamousFourProductsLtd I don't remember any issues as such but I don't think it fitted on any of our ramps/lifts.

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

Haha, it was quite the beast of a vehicle!

[@peterbuckley3877]

My favourite was the Australian Army Landrover Perentie, Australian engineered and manufactured 6 WD long wheel base reconnaissance vehicle.

[@worldtraveler930]

I would Dearly Love to have a left hand drive version of the Long Nose!!! 🤠👍

[@chrisknight6884]

The title of this video is illogical. There are no degrees of uniqueness . Something is either unique (meaning one of) or it isn't. You cannot have 'most unique'.

[@garryseery3865]

Yeah, it’s a bit like something being ‘new and improved’.

[@camb3156]

Unique has multiple definitions in the Oxford dictionary, one of which is “particularly remarkable, special, or unusual.” That definition could certainly have degrees

[@lugubriousenclave91]

Can be unique to as in the land rover perenti is unique to the Australian army. As in no other defence force is the world uses the perenti.

[@geoffdobbin9512]

well said. others are:-very unique, almost unique, VERY last VERY first.

[@jessehalper]

Like fake news. If it's fake it ain't news.

[@kumarancvk]

The first car was like ghost buster vehicle

[@markloubser2433]

Unique would be a series2 with original halfshafts.........

[@alexk8792]

That Bell Aurens Longnose looks pretty damn cool

[@rogergregory5981]

Got to be the four track , a very useful vehicle for obvious reasons

[@anthonycurr3161]

I owned 2 The older SWB was "Elissa" and the newer LWB was "Marla".

[@GunnarMiller]

They actually made two Bel Aurens Longnose prototypes; they were based on late-60s Seies 2as, but were built in 2008. As others have said , "unique" is a superlative. I also think you meant "mortal coil" instead of "mortal earth".

[@rafaeloreirorodriguez5278]

Already loving this channel as a LR collector.🎉 Unique pretty landies. 👁️

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

Glad you like them! We hope to have some more videos coming soon.

[@davidblackburn6569]

i have a 74 range rover with a carawagon camper conversion

[@bushmanPMRR]

What, no Dredd Cabs? They were pretty wild! 😂

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

Haha, yes they are rather cool. We have actually mentioned them in a previous video, but there are so many unique Land Rovers, we might have to make several parts to speak about them all.

[@Ghost63123]

Remember to add the car used in the movie "Chitty chitty bang bang". It was also built on a Land Rover chassis

[@DaveHearnden]

When I saw you mention Glenfrome was excited, I have a Glenfrome Portway 6 door, plus I also have a Scottorn Range Rover 6x6 no 3.

[@jimmychanbers2424]

You could fit a 6-71 Detroit Diesel in that.😮

[@davidbarnsley8486]

Number 5 for me the long nose was the best 😂😂

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

Who doesn't need a cricket ball gearknob?

[@derekpirie9188]

How about the Forward Cab Land Rovers. Many body configurations.

[@peterwright9546]

I was in the RAF when they first introduced the Carmichael conversion 6x4 in the 70s ,within a couple of months they were put under restrictions because if the went round a corner to fast they fell over, due to the light water tank being set to high, the one at Machrihanish had to go back for modification so we ended up using the old Landrover fire truck till it came back.

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

Thanks for sharing this awesome story, it's always amazing to hear stories from people that were actually around these amazing vehicles!

[@0836whimper]

Grammar pedant mode on. You can’t be more unique or less unique. You are unique or not unique, it is absolute. Think the word you need is ‘rare’.

[@landscapedetective4064]

Well said.

[@HillsAdmin]

The longnose is for me

[@BrianM0OAB]

How about the Forest Rover ?

[@BrianM0OAB]

ahh another one, the glider winch Landy

[@Masterbaconator]

You should see the landy over on the channel Mr Hewes, very cool

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

We shall definitely go and check it out!

[@ldnwholesale8552]

Very luxurious, Jensen powered,, well a 440 Mopar which should near resolve the lack of power in all Landrovers.

[@EllieMaes-Grandad]

Unique is a very specific word, from the Latin, literally meaning 'one only'. It takes no modification and any attempt to do so will be grammatically incorrect.

[@russellhorsefield9199]

I like all of them mainly for their uniqueness which proves you don't need to be a hob nob to own one.

[@lugubriousenclave91]

Land rover perenti. Used soloey by the Australian defence forces. There were 4x4 6x4 and 6x6 in different specifications and utikity uses, but some only had 1, may be 2 of them made, like a 1 off forward command radio vehicle, 6x6 with light armour and another with a small canon designed as a recon vehicle.

[@michaelmueller7962]

... and they had a great 3.9 Isuzu truck Diesel engine

[@agentcrm]

I don't believe there was any 6x4 versions. Those 1's and 2's were still based on the standard chassis' though, just different equipment bolted too them. Except the Long Range Recon version.

[@MENSA.lady2]

#21 The Cuthburtson was used by contractors working fot the MOD cleating unexploded ordenance at old live firing ranges on the Essex coasti like Shoeberryness..

[@trevormitson6026]

Please please, turn the volume down of that music 👍👍

[@africadreamin]

Not wishing to get into the semantics of unique or uniqueness but I consider that the Ag-Rover meets both by a mile.

[@lesklower7281]

That cricket ball gear shift know hast to be the best but as a hearse why not they have converted many vehicles into hearses including a sidecar on a motorcycle

[@DethLok]

I was expecting to see the steam powered one!

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

Maybe we'll have to do a few more videos??

[@derekpirie9188]

@@FamousFourProductsLtd There is a Steam Powered one, see some years ago on KZbin.

[@meirionevans5137]

Forestry Commission had some 2A/air portables that used 28" rims/tyres from a Grey Ferguson. Loads of ground clearance, but poor cornering(!) I may have a pic if you have an e.mail for me?

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

We of course would love to see these photos! You can send us an email to [e-mail] :)

I've seen a long ass defender with 6 doors

What about the roadless Land Rover. Rare nowadays

[@mikeroutledge6929]

i was going to mention that one, i think the forestry commission had a hand in that one, i have the roadless book " from tracks to tractors " it has a few good pictures in there

I miss the 101FC Intercept Complex

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

If we ever make a coolest Land Rover list, the 101FC will definitely be on that list!

[@russellritchings8082]

I like the tracked version. Wonder if they still make them at the factory.

[@JoesWebPresence]

You can buy those tracks and fit them yourself. I've seen them on minis! Search "mini cooper on tank tracks" for the image.

[@RogersRamblings]

A tank is an armoured fighting vehicle. A car fitted with tracks but no armour or weapon is not a tank.

[@frankyantornjr]

There is one converted to steam with a big boiler in front

[@65cj55]

Did Landrover body designers come from a refrigerator company...

What about a view of the Laird Centaur half track Landy - ?

You cannot have "the most unique...." anything! Unique is an absolute; it is either unique or it's not - just like pregnancy, you've got one in the oven or you haven't. Little wonder our children do not know the English language.

[@ronnieg6358]

Nothing is "most unique" It's either unique or it isn't

[@cbmsysmobile]

No mention of the Centaur?

[@JoesWebPresence]

Wherra pope-mobile?

[@a.wiessler5543]

At Minute 6:20: Sorry, but i can't help myself.... I see the front fenders from an Opel Manta Coupe Series II... ...and the real side panel from a Renault R5, or at least the rear window!!! Does anybody agree???

[@Andi4u]

The last one looks like a baby from a Range Rover and a Renault 5…. Not sure what to make of that…

[@robt2151]

I have a Solihull-built '127' that was built three years before the factory officially built 127s, but I know that it is not unique.

[@jb6027]

Was the white Pope-mobile a Land Rover?

[@FamousFourProductsLtd]

From our research there have been a few different Pope-Mobile's that have been Land Rovers. There appears to be a Defender 90, a Land Rover Santana and also a couple of Range Rovers, of which were two of the first Pope-Mobiles to have bulletproof glass.
