Oxford OO Land Rover Ser II LWB Bluebird

Our latest Land Rover Series 2 Long wheelbase model marks the occasion of Donald Campbell’s Bluebird World Land Speed Record Attempt in Utah in 1960 and the white graphics on the side of the vehicle say it all. Registered 9255 NX, the Land Rover was one of the support vehicles which accompanied the Bluebird entourage to the Utah Salt Flats for the world record attempt, which sadly ended in an almost total Bluebird loss after a 300 mph crash. Decorated in the Bluebird signature bright blue, our 1:76 scale Series 2 Land Rover has a masked white roof and bumpers, olive green canvas back and mid grey interior. The wheels and the dashboard take on the bright blue body colour. A special addition comprises two fuel tanks and canister holders fixed to each of the front wings. A final detail is the placement of the Land Rover logo not only in the centre of the chrome radiator grille but also on the nearside front wing.
