1972 Land Rover Series 3 88" 2.25 Diesel
For Sale is my 1972' Land Rover Series 3 88" SWB.
Fitted with a 2.25 Diesel engine which runs very sweetly.
The Land Rover has no Current MoT and will require and estimated £100 worth of Welding to Pass.
The Chassis as a whole is in reasonable order however it will want a couple of small patches for the MoT-Easy enough to do.
The bulkhead is in good condition and won't require any immediate work as far as I can see.
The 2.25 Diesel Engine starts readily and runs sweetly.
The original 4-Speed Gearbox selects nicely and the 'Fairey Overdrive' works well.
It also benefits from freewheeling hubs for a little extra MPG.
The brakes work well and should pass the MoT easily.
The Electrics all work fine, It may want a bulb replacing here and there which I'll try and get around to.
The Interior is quite tidy and is fitted with two Volvo front seats for added comfort and 2 rear bench seats [So it seats 6]
The Land Rover Drives well for it's age and the 2.25 diesel pulls surprisingly well!
Overall a very easy DIY project which will require less than a weekends work.
From what I can see all it will need for the MoT is a couple of patches on the Chassis [Estimated around £100]
It's got a lovely patina for an old Land Rover.
Delivery available. Please see my 100% feedback. Viewing Welcome.

The Land Rover Defender is an off-road vehicle produced under this name by the British manufacturer, Land Rover, since 1991. However, the vehicle is the direct heir of the first Land Rover that made its debut in 1948. The first prototype was built by the British automaker in 1947 and it was designed for the army. This iconic car was improved over the years and it has been known for generations as a national treasure.
