Description:
The Land Rover ‘Ninety’ was launched in 1984, shortly after the ‘One Ten’ in 1983. Both were adopted by the Armed Forces a couple of years later, to carry on the role that the Series III 109” and 88” models had served so well. The vehicles were originally powered by the bullet-proof, but slow ‘12J’ naturally aspirated 2. 5 litre diesel engine (essentially an upgraded 2. 25 diesel), mated to the then new five speed LT77 gearbox. They also had servo assisted braking, using disc brakes at the front, and drums on the rear, and no power steering for simplicity in the field.
This particular Ninety is a 12 Volt GS (General Service) model that entered service with the Ministy of Defence in 1987, and was cast and sold off into civilian hands in 2002. Originally a full-length canvas top, the hood and frame have been replaced new Exmoor Trim items, the former having side windows to give more light inside and better sideways visibility. A full-length chassis-mounted Safety Devices roll cage has been installed giving far superior protection to its occupants in the event of an accident and to the bodywork in off road environments. A later 200Tdi engine from a Defender (top mounted turbo) along with the power steering has also been fitted, giving better performance, economy and slightly more refinement, all beneficial for use on today’s roads.
Jumping into the driver’s seat, the engine easily fires up from cold, and pulls well with plenty of grunt and little smoke. The gearbox, high/ low gears, difflock and clutch all work as they should, and the brakes work strongly bringing it to a stop nicely. Underneath, the chassis is solid, and has had a replacement rear crossmember fitted at some stage. It has also been undersealed to protect it from the winter grime and salt, so rust is not something to worry about anytime soon. The bulkhead and footwells are good with only minor surface corrosion in the engine bay below the bonnet drip rail. The body work is straight, and has been resprayed in a glossy NATO green by a previous owner; making for a very presentable vehicle.
The interior is good, with two high-back logo-patterned cloth seats plus a cubby box, and full Exmoor-Trim carpeting helping with sound insulation. Additional bench seats are fitted in the back for a further four ‘occasional’ occupants. The dashboard has a couple of holes from previous accessories, but is in good condition and still has the centre-mounted military lighting switch present.
The odometer reads 158, 700 kilometers (equivalent to 98, 600 miles), which we cannot verify to be correct or not but would be right for an ex-MoD Land Rover. The vehicle will come with a fresh 12 month MoT. This Ninety is ready to be used, enjoyed or put to work; whether it be on the farm, building site, shoot, towing heavy trailers or just as a winter backup vehicle! If you are interested in the vehicle, please do get in touch.
