Aside from the obvious, interesting vehicle. Looks like military pattern rear tub with additional under seat tank, military s3 bumper but civvy doors.

Confident it's a 110, it's got eyebrows and a 110 screen on it.

That looks like a regular Defender grill to me. The (typically military) lack of headlight finishers makes it look slightly odd though against that sand colour.

I'd guess that the side tank was necessary to make way for some sort of support framework attached to the chassis for the missile mount. Darren

Definitely 110 not a Stage 3 V8, early enough to have the starting handle hole still.

great solution for the age old problem of drivers who put their rear fog lights on when it is raining, very slightly misty, their car has misted up and they are to dumb to realise that it's not foggy etc. etc.

It's not a Santana! Look carefully and you can see the Land Rover 110 badge above the grill? I'm not aware of Santana using eyebrows either.

I would think it is a demo vehicle for a specific army
