That's certainly a Forward Control Landie, possibly based on a military fire-engine?

Predictable question alert///
Why are they called forward control? Is it because the Controls are ahead of the front axle unlike a normal landy?
Why were they made?

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

I remember when the film came out and LR made a big thing about in the year 2139 the only vehicles that survived were Landies, a local garage to me had one on display for ages, then it moved to the nearby REME museum, now its vanished
