Description
I've owned this vehicle since Sept 2010 and during that time have improved it by changing all tyres including the spare to Michelin XZL's and changing the fuel tank to a stainless steel one.
During the entire 7 1/ 2 years the vehicle has been kept roadworthy with any repairs carried out as necessary. This has included much work on the brakes, the master cylinder has been rebuilt, the servo replaced, all front cylinders have been replaced and one of the rear ones.
Also when I first got it I had it undersealed by before and after rustproofing but despite this I have had some welding done where needed, the most recent being the bottom of both A posts. I've also replaced one of the wiper boxes that seized up and also the drive to it was replaced at the same time
I have recently had the tax class changed to Historic Vehicle so it is now tax and MOT exempt. However I also had it MOT'd anyway (5 May) which it passed with 3 minor advisories - Slightly worn shock absorber bush, Slight free play at steering wheel, Minor exhaust leak.
Most of the ambulance kit is still with the vehicle and it comes with a large scrim net (which could do with some tidying) and a set of scrim poles and mushrooms (enough to be able to make a 'garage' for those in the know)
It’s currently showing 76, 500km’s which is less than 50, 000 miles.
All blue lights are fitted (and covered over) and the twin tones work when connected.
In the current market I think it's worth £9, 500 but am open to reasonable offers.
I live on the Isle of Wight so if you want to come over to take a look I'm happy to meet you off the boat (hovercraft from Southsea is best).
If you don’t know much about 101’s it may be worth you doing some research before you come so you know what to expect – these vehicles are not like your average land-rover.
May consider a Series 2 Lightweight in PX but no restoration projects please.
Phone the details below (if I can't take the call leave a message and I'll get back to you)
