Like her sister Bilberry, Briar is not a Series 2A model but the less common and short-lived Series 2. Although the Series 2 differed little from the later 2A, it represented a far more significant diversion from the original Series 1, which it replaced in 1958.
The Series 2 was the first Land Rover to receive the attentions of the Rover styling department, introducing iconic features such as the 'barrel sides’ to accommodate its wider track, plus the curved vertical rear quarter windows (on hardtop models) and distinctive angular but round-edged roof profile that remained a hallmark until production ended in 2015. Mechanically, the major change was a shift from the asthmatic 2-litre engines to the far superior 2.25-litre units.
Briar dates from the last year of Series 2 production in 1961 – she was exactly 2400 cars and around six weeks behind Bilberry on the production line, leaving the factory in late February but beating her sister onto the road, being first registered in April compared to Bilberry’s May.

Little is known of Briar’s subsequent history, although she spent her most recent years with an enthusiast in Dorset, before passing to Goodwood in summer 2018.
Briar is now a valued member of the Goodwood Classic Land Rover fleet, used across retail and corporate experiences around the estate. Book your Goodwood Off-Road Experience and test your Land Rover driving skills whilst discovering the capability of this 50-year-old legend across a range of natural terrains.
Experiences are available on selected dates throughout the year. Book your adventure today.
