Here's the Model 90
One of a half a million Overlands now in use.
Beautiful in appearance, powerful, in performance, comfortable even on rough roads because the cantilever rear springs smooth out the bumps of the road. Big tyres help to ease the going
There is plenty of leg room for both driver and passengers. Electric control from the steering column, simple to operate. Women drive it with ease.
Light, but easy riding, powerful, but easy driving is practical enough for the roughest going
