1995cc petrol, manual. This is an 86-inch Land Rover Series I with the 2.0-litre IOE petrol engine, and has remained with the same keeper since it was re-registered in 1994. It retains various original features, from its lamp units to its rear “semi-floating” rear hubs, and it appears to have performed a special role in the past, given its wooden trimmings around the tub, extra lamps, steering wheel trim and unique paintwork. The sticker and bulkhead plaque also suggest that it has made an appearance at Goodwood, although it is currently under the "limited use" taxation class.
Between 2006 and 2011, it was being MoT tested almost every year without any advisories. Its latest certificate expired in 2012 and we are told it has been in storage, so recommissioning may be required.
The only paperwork is its last MoT certificate and the current V5C which indicates no former keepers, and also records that the Land Rover was first registered overseas. Its registration number is non-transferable.
