I'm a recently widowed that have a Land Rover station wagon 1958 that was owned by my husband. The vehicule registration have an error and state that the vehicule is a 1961 land rover. I need to go to the registration office and prove to it that the vehicule is a 1958 land and not a 1961.
can somebody help me with the right arguments, photos , etc. to demostrate my request
Appreciate your help

My deepest condolences for your loss.

The main difference between those two years would be that a '58 would be a Land Rover series 1 and a '61 would be a Land Rover series 2.

one big visual difference between the two is that the doors on a series 1 are very distinctive, the glass starts higher up on the door.

The easiest way would be for you to verify the vehicles vin number on the title, with the vin on the the vehicle's body.

Theres some useful information on how to find the vin number here:

If the problem that you're faced with is establishing the vehicles value, a heritage certificate from the British motor museum may help.
