Seems more basic build than the proper Royal Review Landies, but a genuine VIP/parade version not a cardboard-and-sellotape bodge. So did Land Rover supply a batch of poverty Review versions for distribution round the Empire/Commonwealth?? |

Perhaps it was a parade car for the Sierra Leone army. |
