The vehicle has been designed, built and tested
to cope with a variet y of off-road driving
conditions, some of which can place the
severest possible demands on control systems
and components. As such , fitting replacement
parts and accessories that have been
developed and tested to the same stringent
standards as the orig inal components will
safeguard the continued reliability, safety and
performance of your vehicle.
To augment the vehicle's already impressive
performance, a compre hensive range of Land
Rover approved spare parts and accessories is
available, enabling the vehicle to fulfil a wide
variety of roles, and enhancing and protecting
the vehicle in the many tasks to which it can be
applied.
Land Rover parts are the only parts built to
original equipment specifications and
approved by Land Rover designers; this means
that every single part and accessory has been
rigorously tested by the same engineering
team that designed and built the vehicle and
can therefore be guaranteed for twelve months
with unlimited mileage.
A full list and description of all accessories is
available from your Land Rover Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.
