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.

1982 LAND ROVER SERIES 3 109 Ex-military
Sellers Comments - Purchased from John Brown Landrovers about 5 years ago and used every year for about 200/300 miles with the kids and bikes and dog walks etc. Ran out of MOT last year and failed only on Brakes. Selling as an easy project as I do not have the time to devote to the old girl. Chassis and Bulkhead sound although underneath could do with a clean and re-waxoil. Needs new door tops ideally and a new battery and the brakes sorting and a general tidy up as she has stood for 6 months under the trees. Other than that she starts and drives well. Never let me down when we were using her. Will need trailering away. Cash on Collection from Cornwall Please.
Land Rover Lightweight SIII - 1974
Sellers Comments - For sale, my Land Rover Lightweight Series III. I've owned it for 20 years. The actual vehicle was built in January 1974 (I recently got a Heritage Certificate as proof) and demobbed from the army in 1983. The owner at that time give it the look it has now although I added forward-facing rear seats and a Lightweight grille. It has twin tanks and a Kenlowe fan. I have MOTs going back to the very first one in 1983 so you can check mileage. I also have receipts for jobs/service going back to 1994. I haven't used the vehicle for aggressive off-roading, just the occasional poodling around gentle runs on off-road courses at various Land Rover shows. The reason why I'm selling is that I'm simply not using it enough and it needs to go to somebody who will. It passed its MOT a couple of weeks ago with an advisory for a slight leak on nearside rear hub seal. It could do with a decent service and some TLC. Please bear in mind this a 42-year-old Land Rover! Vehicle is in Clapham, SW London.

Landrover Series 2a Marshall Ambulance
Sellers Comments -
![]() This is my Marshall Landrover for sale She is registered in 1971 and is a 2 1/4 petrol series 2a . MOT runs until March 2017 . I have taken the rear heater out so that my MT350 will fit in the back but still have all the parts so it can be put back as was . The rear window is cracked and there is an oil leak on the rear N/S wheel hub. She has 12,000 on the clock a new front crossmember , inner wings , foot well passenger side . She has taken over a year of my time to get her back to this condition . I have lots of photos of the repairs that I can supply . There are the four stretchers and stretcher covers on the roof . I have only used her as a show vehicle and to raise funds for Military charities . She needs a couple more bits doing but is a great vehicle and you have room in the back for a double bed when camping View Details - Additional Photos |

Land Rover Series 1 (107" truck)
Sellers Comments
Here we have my 1955 Series 1 Land Rover 107"
MOT expiry shown, but it is MOT Exempt!
I bought the vehicle 3 years ago, as a pastime for my imminent retirement.
Retired last year, but now back at work!
Enough of that, so here's a description:
1955 Land Rover 107" truck
RAF Blue
Should have a petrol engine, but a previous owner installed a 2.5 litre turbo diesel
The engine is what I believe is called a 19j. Early Disco?
I am told that the reg. no. is "age related", the original transferred to another vehicle
I have evidence that the original number was OWW 705
I have no idea of the mileage, as the odometer does not work
Chassis is sound, and possibly a replacement for the original, but I am no expert
The only instrument that works is the speedo
Full tilt by Exmoor Trim, in contrasting blue
Sticks are not a genuine set, but are perfectly useable
I believe that the bloke I bought the vehicle from mixed the sticks with his 80" Series 1
Seats are in very good order, and obviously a replacement for the originals
When I bought it, there were 12 seats, 3 up front and 9 in the tub (see photos)
I have only used it as a truck, so the 9 in the tub were removed, but are included
Tyres are in very good order (see photos)
Last three photos were from the bloke who sold me the vehicle
These show the possible seating configuration, engine and underside
The V5 states "Date of first registration" as 01.10.1998
At section 8 it states "Decl/d manuf 1955"
I translate this as "declared manufactured 1955"
The VIN plate is present, though not attached to the Land Rover, giving the manufacturer's serial number
Land Rover Series 3 Safari Edition
Sellers Comments - Offered for sale is my Land Rover Series III. It has been a great companion this summer but sadly I do not have both the time to give it the attention it should have, or winter parking for it. I would much rather it be used by someone who can give it the time and appreciation it deserves.
It is rather special as it features a full safari roof rack with safari vents underneath and a ladder to get up onto the top. It also has windows in the back, which means is gives great vision when driving, and if anyone wanted to put seats into the back it would give a better view to the passengers. I have also fitted a custom made cubby-box in between the front seats, which is very useful to keep bits and bobs that would normally roll around the dashboard! The middle seat in included in the sale however, just in case you prefer it with three seats in the front.
Whilst I have owned it, I have fitted a new battery (with a 3 year guarantee), upgraded the headlights to halogen, fitted a new rear view mirror, a new windscreen washer motor. The Land Rover also benefits from a Fairey overdrive to give you a bit of a boost, and free wheeling hubs on the front axle. It has been oiled and greased every week by myself, with a full oil change every 6 months.
The Land Rover also comes with a box of spares including seals and headlights, and a full folder of receipts and invoices. It is Tax exempt next year, which would save a great amount of money, and I insure it using Classic Car insurance which, even though I'm only 23, is a third of my 'modern' car insurance.
It has MOT until March 2017 with NO advisories given on the previous inspection, and drives very well. I'm not going to claim it is the fastest thing in the world, but it gets you from A to B and you have an enormous amount of fun with it.
