In much of rural Spain, the Land Rover has been the car of choice for farmers and goat herders, for decades. Not the fancy version you usually see in the US, but the "Santana Cazorla" which was a much more bare bones one produced in Linares, at the heart of olive oil country. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santana_Motor

Those cars look 30 years old or more! No one is commenting on the absolute off road tanks Land Rover used to build. The new cars are purely luxury cars for rich people, as evident of Land Rover killing off the real off road LR models.

The original Land Rover was launched in the 40s

Yes I know. Same as Jeep. Those are refereed to as the Land Rover "Series" models.

I see why I am confused about Discovery. They were marketed as the LR3/4 since 2004 in North America and called Discovery everywhere else.

These used to be licensed Defenders, not the fancy Range Rovers. Both are distinct types of the same brand (Land Rover).
