This model from Michael Stegmann is a very special Land Rover, the Bell-Aurens Longnose. The prototype custom Land Rover was finally ready in 2009 after 3.500 hours, built by Thomas Bell in Germany. The Longnose based on a 109ER Land Rover from 1967 with full-time 4-wheel drive with a Range Rover 4.6 liter 8-cylinder engine. Customers with enough money can order their own Longnose, for a price of about 235,000 Euros. The basis for Michael's model was a significantly more affordable Land Rover by Roco modified with Evergreen sheet and profiles. The wheels were donated by a Chevrolet from Trident. Previously featured in Photo Galleries 630 & 634. On display at the 2014 Fulda Meet.
