These pictures
of the new Land Rover Adventurer CB40 in disguise
were taken by Christina Curtis last month.
She spotted it in Co. Galway, Ireland,
where she had been chasing it around for a while!
The engine options for the Adventurer are likely to be the 2 litre
T-series Mpi petrol engine (except this time it could be turbocharged)
giving 140 bhp,
and also the new L-series 2 litre turbo diesel giving 120 bhp.
The Land Rover CB40
will have permanent 4WD, independent suspension,
and monocoque construction after all.
It is due out in 1997 in SWB form and in early 1998 for LWB form.
As far as we know, the CB40 will initially be launched only in Europe, and we do not know when it will be available at all in the USA.
