Not sure what model year you're looking for, but finding one in general should be easy. There are tons of different online retailers that carry 1:18 diecast cars; typing '1:18 Landrover' into google, here's one example:

Brick and mortar retailer like sharper image, kb toys, and a variety of hobby shops all carry 1:18 cars, and SUVs like the Landrover are all very popular right now.

the wall sections are good, can do a lot with them, they fit together ok, some dont stick together real great, but they work well, i'm sure there is a lot i will use them for,

i guess i am looking for a 70s model, blacked out windows would be perfect. i think i'll try to check KBs and other hobby shops, but i have been so far unsuccesful, oh well the hunt continues.
