Sellers Comments - 1963 Land Rover Series IIA 88' (FREE ROAD TAX)
Rare family owned from new, (The family owned Cotswold Land Rover). Showing 4 Owners on V5 with the vehicle changing hands within the family. With the previous owner still being Cotswold Land Rover.
This Vehicle was subject to a full restoration in the late 80's, With some Series 3 Upgrade parts fitted including Wings, Bulkhead, Dash & Instrument Cluster.
This year it has had a new refurbished 1989 2.5 TDi 85 HP short engine fitted with new crank & pistons.
Also has had new brake lines etc.
Engine & gearbox are both superb in great working order.
Nice solid vehicle.
I have also got 4 brand new Shocks & Parabolic springs here to be fitted as is leaning to one side. (included in sale)
The boot is also full of new spare parts etc.
Mileage is showing 10k Miles, as speedo was changed when the series 3 dash was fitted. I have 13 Previous mot's back to mid 80's and believe the correct mileage to be between 65k-75k miles.
Current MOT Valid till end Nov 15. but there's no reason it wont go straight through a new one with the amount of money spent on it this year.
Great Solid investment & workhorse values will only rise and even more next year after production of the defender stops next month.
