Description
For sale, through JOHN BROWN 4X4 LTD, Land Rover ® Series 2a Ragtop in Deep Bronze Green (1965).
MOT exempt. Tax Exempt. Petrol 2286cc. Recent period rims with replacement 750 matching tyres all round including spare. Twin Wiper Motors. Heater with front demist.
Here for sale we are delighted to present this smart Series 2a, in popular Deep Bronze Green soft-top configuration. We sold this vehicle previously in 2018, with it now once again available for sale, due to the owner having to emigrate for work.
Externally the vehicle sports many period features including vintage numberplates, wing mounted mirrors and razor bonnet. The body is relatively straight and a set of 750 tyres on period wheels are fitted to improve gearing ratios and off-road capability. The canvas is recently fitted, along with a recent galvanised stick set, and both are in perfect condition. A towbar and electrics is fitted to allow towing and is a pleasing modern and desirable addition to the vehicle.
The interior houses three recent front seats with full 3 point seat belts for each front seat and deluxe matting throughout. The heater is still in situ with the front demist to the windscreen, handy for winter days - and twin wiper motors are fitted. The dash is simple yet period and it is pleasing to note that there are no silly additions other than those fitted as standard. The spare wheel is housed in the rear, on a dog fitted to the rear of the bulkhead. A pair of bench seats are fitted in the rear to allow seating for seven occupants including the driver - all with belts too!
Out on the road, the petrol engine pulls well, and the slightly larger 750 tyres, which afford a more relaxed cruise at lower revs. It delivers a pleasing, period driving experience.
In summary, if you are looking for a simple to maintain, period Series 2a in popular petrol and soft top configuration then this could be for you. With tax and MOT exemption, along with classic insurance, it should prove cheap to run in the long term whilst being a solid investment.
