The Appeal
The long-wheelbase Land Rover Series IIA 109" is among the most versatile and enduring utility vehicles of its generation. Powered by the reliable 2.25-litre petrol engine, the 109" offered go-anywhere capability with room for passengers and cargo, and it remains a highly sought-after classic today.
This 1969 example has reportedly been the subject of a thorough restoration. The vehicle is noted to have been fully stripped to its bare chassis, which was then restored and given a protective treatment. The bodywork was reportedly rebuilt with panels repainted, while the interior was renewed with reupholstered seats in an eight-seat configuration that is homologated on the vehicle documents.
Mechanically, the vendor notes the engine has been rebuilt, and the braking system, suspension, transmission, and electrical system have all been replaced or reconditioned. Retaining its original black plates from the province of Bergamo and accompanied by its British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate, this Series IIA 109" presents an appealing opportunity for enthusiasts seeking a restored example of this iconic workhorse.
