Land Rover Series IIa SWB, 1968, Galvanized Chassis, injected V8, tax exempt

This is an SWB Series IIa truck cab Landie with an injected Rover 3.5 V8. It sits on a galvanized coil sprung chassis and has early Rangie axles with 4-wheel servo-assisted disc brakes. You'll probably recognize the colour as Pastel Green (like the last-ever Defender). The interior has black deluxe seats. Inertia reel seat belts are fitted. The rear sliding window felts were replaced recently and so the glass operates smoothly. The engine is a 9.75:1 compression injected Rover V8, which according to the engine specs I've seen means 190bhp from the factory. I don't know if any work's been done on it since, but it certainly feels strong. There's no smoke, rattles or knocks. It has a thermostatically controlled Kenlowe fan and the radiator has been repaired and flushed recently.The gearbox is a four-speed unit. The exhaust is a custom-built dual stainless steel system with a transverse silencer nicely tucked up under the pick up bed - see pic. The wheels are Compomotive 15x7s with Runway 31 / 10.5 / 15 tyres, with plenty of tread (see pic). I couldn't find locking nuts for these wheels on the market, so I had a set machined to fit. The wiring has been upgraded with colour-coded cabling and an 8 way fusebox. The MoT is until 9 October 2016 and of course it's tax exempt. Included in the sale is a box of spares, including an ECU, air flow meter, resistor pack, fuel pump & filter. There's box file full of receipts, MoT certificates, etc. This LR runs really well and has never let me down. Sometimes it'll sits for weeks but always starts on the button. The exhaust sounds great, strong but not too loud. I'm only selling because I don't use it enough - it's only travelled 18 miles since the last MoT - and I have another couple of classics taking up my time and money. I think I've set a fair starting price and there's NO RESERVE. Happy bidding. - Sellers Comments

Land Rover Series 2a - 1969 Tax Exempt

969 Tax Exempt Series 2a Land Rover as a non-runner. It was a working vehicle up until 2012 where it unfortunately dropped a rod and made a hole in the block. It currently has the 2 1/4 Petrol Engine so a diesel upgrade might be the way to go. I had every intention of restoring it but I no longer have the time which is a real shame and it has been parked up since 2012. It passed the last MOT after a couple of small things needed correcting. I recall one of the front shocks needing changing, one of the brakes was a bit sticky and it needed a new sidelight lense. Might have been a couple of more small other things, certainly no welding or such like. Also worth mentioning that I have changed the 5 or 6 ball joints on the steering and this did help the handling. Being completely honest this is not a showroom model and definitely needs some TLC, but could be restored or just made road worthy again. I have had a crawl underneath and cant see and areas that need attention, however don’t hold me to that. It does seem pretty solid overall and there has clearly been work carried out on it before. Please bear in mind this is nearly a 50 year old vehicle that has worked most of its life and It will not handle like a modern Defender! I have tried to be as honest as I can and I the pictures give a good representation of its condition. Before it was parked up it was working but would benefit from some attention. I have the V5 Document in my name and possession. Due to relocating I ideally need this collected by the 19/04/2016. I am based just near Cardiff and would suggest a trailer would be needed to collect. I cannot offer any delivery services. Not shown in the pictures is another wheel/tyre and the seats that it come with when I purchased it. I will but these in the back ready for you. Sellers Comments

Land Rover Series 1 - 1956 - 86"

Sellers Comments - This 1956 Series 1 Land Rover was bought by the present owner about two years ago and has been sympathetically restored with original parts to keep it as original as possible. Improvements have included new seats, front bumper, front springs, carburettor, new exhaust manifold, new cam and followers, big ends and piston rings - all completed within the last 12 months. It is in fair condition, though please bear in mind that this is a 60 year old vehicle and will have the natural wear and tear that this entails. There is still room for improvement; for example with new door seals and window rubbers. The rear window has a small crack. There is a slight rattle when starting and I have been told this is the timing chain which needs attention. It is clean and tidy throughout. This is a hard to find vehicle and is not a barn find. I am the fourth owner and the car continues to remain roadworthy, needing attention only appropriate to its age. It is exempt from road tax and MOT in the UK.
