* 1958 Diesel Series II Land Rovers aren't added to this total yet.

Data from 1948 to 1958 reflects build dates, not sales.
Series III sales extended into 1975, but no data from that year is known. The production for US Series III 88's was:
    Year Built
    1971 30
    1972 1634
    1973
    1246
    1974 469


Total Series built: about 18,000 and 3 unknown years. Assuming 650 per year in those missing years would imply a total of 20,000 Series Land Rovers originally imported.

Between 1975 and 1986, no Land Rovers were sold in North America. A number of grey markent ones were imported by various vendors.
