Model History[]

The Land Rover Ninety debuted for the 1987 mainline under the 1-75 series as MB180, produced from 1987 to 2007.

The casting was retooled in 2007 to convert the metal base to plastic, known as MB721, produced from 2007 to 2012.

It was retooled again in 2017 for easier assembly, the separate plastic roof piece became part of the metal body while the rear rivet goes through the roof now, and reworked details. It has returned as MB180 once again since 2017.
