1974 Land Rover® Series 3 Ragtop *MOT & Tax Exempt* (SDF) For Sale

For sale, through JOHN BROWN 4X4 LTD, Land Rover® Series 3 Ragtop in Mid-Grey (1974).

Petrol 2286cc. MOT & Tax Exempt. Recent Exhaust. 7 Seater. Recent Canvas with Side Windows. Free Wheeling Hubs. Bonnet Mounted Spare. Side Steps. Sports Air Filter.

We are delighted to present for sale this Land Rover® Series 3, presented in the popular Mid-Grey colour scheme with Limestone Wheels.

Externally, there are lots of period features one would hope to see on one of these – the vintage numberplates, bonnet mounted spare, free wheeling hubs to aid economy and axle wear, larger defender style mirrors for better visibility and rear grabhandles. There is also a recent canvas fitted, along with side windows, which completes the look. The vehicle sits on a set of road-biased tyres, which are slightly larger than standard to aid gearing & give a positive stance. In our opinion, all of these features combine to make a very handsome Series 3 Land Rover® – which would look at home in the city or on your drive in the countryside.

The interior is largely standard, with three front standard seats, along with the deluxe matting to the footwells. Door cards are fitted to give a premium feel and aid with sound deadening. In the rear, there are a set of rear bench seats which means this vehicle affords seating for seven occupants including the driver, with a load mat to the floor area. The canvas with side windows not only gives better visibility when driving, but also makes for a light and airy experience for rear seat passengers.

Out on the road, this old girl drives just as she should – with a recent exhaust and a sports air filter, there is a little more power and a pleasing exhaust tone. The road biased rubber means a better ride, whilst the larger tyres and free wheeling hubs aid fuel economy too. It delivers a pleasing period driving experience. The rarely seen colour scheme also turns heads when out on the road, and we enjoyed many glances and waves on our test route.

In summary, if you are looking for a tax and MOT exempt Classic Land Rover® which can carry all the family in vintage cool, then this could be for you. With the added benefit of classic insurance, and the desirable colour and soft top format, it should prove to be a solid investment for the future.
