The Land Rover Series III 109 is the long-wheelbase variant of the third-generation Series Land Rover range, riding on a 109-inch wheelbase that gave it significantly greater load-carrying capacity than its 88-inch stablemate. It was offered in a wide range of body configurations including station wagon, pickup, and hardtop, making it a practical choice for agricultural, military, and commercial operators worldwide. Power came from a selection of petrol and diesel four-cylinder engines carried over and refined from the Series II era, paired with a part-time four-wheel drive system and low-range transfer case. The 109 occupied the workhorse end of the Series III lineup, prioritizing payload and versatility over compactness, and variants like the six-cylinder-powered Stage One V8 later expanded its capability further.
