Comprehensively restored with over £20,000 invested
New galvanised chassis and new bulkhead fitted
Interior fully restored by Exmoor Trim in Leather and Harris Tweed
The Appeal
The Land Rover County remains one of the most desirable cars in the Series 3 family tree, offering a more refined interior, people-carrying practicality, and a unique persona of its own. Everything in the County seemed fit for the discerning sportsman, with upgrades and refinements for those who appreciated a touch of class in their off-roader.
This red example has been in the same family since 1989, initially serving as a second vehicle and horsebox tow car before being stored in 2006 when the owner moved overseas. A new galvanised chassis was fitted in 2006, and in 2019 the vehicle underwent a substantial restoration programme encompassing bodywork, mechanical components, and a full interior retrim.
Since the 2019 restoration, it has been stored under cover and driven only occasionally.image.png1.73 MB
