Ooohh! Might need a bit of care and attention but my Landrover 90 is
nearly twenty years old and 160 000 miles. Taken me all over Europe too.
Perhaps you are referring to the newer varieties?

Second item on the list of things always to have with you. A piece of
thin stiff wire. Handy for holding things on including exhausts. I even
got a 2CV carburretor going once when a screw dropped out. Also for
poking muck out of things and replacing lightweight hinges. Never travel
without one. Thick wire is also handy but you can always unbend a wire
coat hanger from your luggage.
