I saw one like that on eBay UK and was tempted to buy it.  That was until price went insanely high for a toy.

Newfoundland constabulary had one of the largest non-military fleets of land rovers once upon a time  :)

They had a dealer in NFLD back in the 60s.  My brother bought a new 109, poppy red in 1968.  He had that for years.  Did a lot of hunting.  Great for hunting there as it's rugged country. said it was the most comfortable vehicle he ever had.
