Land Rover started life in Iceland as a farmers help. It had lots of seats and space in the rear that could be used for hauling sheep. When the Range Rover was introduced in the 70s the advanced suspension caught on in a big way and proved it could master the roughest roads. Lately modifications have been popular and are relatively easy to perform.

I really enjoy seeing real 4WD vehicles in real situations where they are needed. There are so many highway bound posers that never go off the pavement here that seeing life or death 4 wheeling in Iceland is really refreshing.
