[Grizz]

My boss is after a pre 1979 Landrover.

Must be left hand drive and in good condition.

I´m not sure which model, but i´ll pass on all offers

What you got??


PM PLEASE

you'll have a hard job find anything like that!.... maybe an old lightweight kicking about but not much else.

Later (non Series) builds are easy to convert from RHD to LHD or look for a santana 88 (clone) out in spain.

If you want advice on doing a 90, 110 RRC or Disco LHD conversion just PM us as we did this for both the MOD and Foreign Office along with other mods on contract for a few years.

There are hundreds of LHD ex military for sale from the surplus brokers, but there won't be anything pre 1979 . Unless your very lucky and get that ex RAF bird scarer, with under 10k Kilometers on the clock, thats been sitting forgotten in the back of a hanger in Cyprus or somewhere simmilar with a dry heat climate.

Not forgetting !!

- welly boots required to drive it in the rain
- oilskin jacket required to drive it in the rain
- Harley Street chyropracter on speed-dial
- a sheepskin driveway , because you'll be lying on it so much!!
- and a "buttplug" to assist with the random "will it brake to the right and pull me into the oncoming traffic or brake to the left and wipe out that child on the pavement" moments.

Can you tell I've owned and run 6 landrover products - 2 of which were Series IIIs ??

1 X 90 TD5 (2000)
1 X 90 TDI (199

and eeeemmmmm (cough) !! a Freelander TD4 , but I'll never admit to that.

I guess the masochistic streak may have something to do with being German, but then, some people swear by them, and others like Nicola swears at them.

Thanks for the replies.
