Description
My well-maintained and recently restored 1972 Land Rover Series 3 109" in desirable pastel green with a dependable 4x4 2. 25 litre petrol engine, bespoke leather interior, electric power steering and Fairey overdrive seeks a new keeper.
KEY FACTS
* Benefiting from an extensive restoration in 2023/ 24, this is a reliable, rugged and versatile classic with all-terrain capabilities.
* The odometer indicates 45, 697 miles, though this is not warranted.
* MOT and tax-exempt
* The vehicle comes with invoices and a V5C certificate.
* I am a private seller located near Newton Abbot, Devon, and have owned the vehicle since February 2020
* To purchase, please call (+44) the details below or email using the button below.
OTHER FEATURES AND BENEFITS
* Equipment includes an eight-seat front centre cubby box layout, high and low-range gearbox, front ventilation hatches, sliding windows, a three-spoke steering wheel, and a tow bar.
* This vehicle comes with an easily removable hardtop with a liner and the option for a canvas roof and renewed galvanised trim and rivets.
SERVICE HISTORY
* Church Farm 4x4 in Norfolk and another Land Rover specialist near Inverness completed the extensive restoration in 2023/ 24, including a complete engine and electric system overhaul, full respray, refurbished wheels, brakes and chassis.
* New parts include a Webber carburettor, ignition coil, steering arms, leaf springs, shock absorbers, stainless steel exhaust, LED headlights, battery, immobiliser, stainless steel screw fittings on door hinges, and rear mud flaps with LR logos.
* In 2018, the immediate past keeper overhauled the gearbox and installed electric power steering and a bespoke leather interior.
CONDITION
* Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition.
* I consider the vehicle to be in very good condition in light of the works completed but with some minor cosmetic defects including: (i) some light rusting to the wheel hubs; (ii) a small patch of bubbling (unbroken paint) under spare tire on rear door; and (iii) some wear and tear to the dash face and interior.
* As is typical with vehicles of this age, on cold days, there is some initial exhaust smoke when heavily choked on start-up. SUMMARY
This 52-year-old Land Rover Series III 109" is a classic British off-roader. Sparingly used, I am confident the next keeper will enjoy her on and off the beaten track for many more years.
