Land Rover
I think it depends on how old it is??? I'm sure there is someone on here will tell us exactly when the changes were made, but I think the series 1's and 2's were "Landrover", Series 3's "Land-Rover" and later stuff "Land Rover"..... but I could be completely wrong

Its either landy or beast
Definitely not car or truck and definitely never spelled JEEP
More seriously I always thought it was spelled Land Rover (2 separate words) like on the badge and the bonnet of discos and defenders.

I thought the original Series 1's were just called "The Landrover"... Series 1's and 2's definitely had a badge on the front grille (very similar to the metal badges that are also on the rear of Land Rovers. Series 3's had a hyphenated "Land-Rover" moulded as part of the front plastic grille.... I suppose the "Z" line through the other Series Land Rover badges could also be taken as a hyphenation????
There is no Hyphenation on newer models - I Guess that started with the 90/110 or Defenders???

I think it would have to be hyphenated or split as Rover comes from the manufacturing brand, and needs to have a capital letter.

The Series 2a Owners Manual, and various LR adverts for the Series 2 and 2a have it as Land-Rover throughout. The Series 3 parts manual has Land Rover. So mine's a Land-Rover (mostly).
