For sale, through JOHN BROWN 4X4 LTD, Land Rover® Series 3 Ragtop in Oxford Blue (1971).
Petrol 2286cc. MOT & Tax Exempt. Bonnet Mounted Spare. Side Steps. Rear Mudflaps. New Sand Canvas. 750 Michelin 4×4 Tyres. 7 Seater. Deluxe Front Seats. Tow bar and Electrics. Free Wheeling Hubs. SU Carburettor.
We are delighted to present for sale this early Series 3 Land Rover®, finished in the rarely seen RAF Oxford Blue colour scheme, with matching wheels and Sand Canvas.
Externally, there are lots of desirable features – the side steps for easier front passenger access, 750 tyres (Michelin 4×4) with bonnet spare for a strong stance, vintage number plates, rear grab handles, rear mud flaps, tow bar and electrics to allow towing, larger defender mirrors to aid the visibility of the driver and free wheeling hubs for superior economy and to reduce axle wear… a brand new sand canvas completes the look. In our opinion, we think this Series 3 looks great – this is not a colour scheme that is common to see – but it looks great out in the daylight, and turns a huge amount of heads as you drive along – it is really striking.
On the inside, there are 3 front deluxe seats, along with deluxe matting to the footwells. A pair of rear bench seats are fitted in the rear, giving seating for 7 people including the driver, with a load mat to the rear floor area to protect against scratches and muddy boots.
Out on the road, this Series 3 drives as it should – free wheeling hubs and 750 tyres give better fuel economy and superior gearing over standard for a more relaxed cruise, and an SU Carburettor conversion has been fitted to give superior power, which is welcome when accelerating to speed. Larger mirrors and the tow pack are welcome additions too, which add flexibility and usability. It delivers a pleasing period drive, helped by the extras.
