The Background
The Series II was introduced in 1958 ten years after the launch of the first Land Rover. With both extensive mechanical and aesthetic changes the Series II took everything that the Series I did and improved upon it.
The new Land Rover was an instant success and is regarded by many as being the best of the “Series” Land Rovers. Notably the II A was the last to feature the headlight on the grille before they were moved to the wings in 1969, where they have remained.
The Land Rover Series II offered an exceptional practical vehicle that could be fully repaired in the field with limited tools. With permanent rear wheel drive and the option to engage the front to give four wheel drive, it was practical both on road and off road. Competition from the likes of the Austin Gypsy was no match for the Series II which dominated the 4WD market and just as it’s descendant the Defender does today.
The History
The current owner acquired the car last October in a swap for an MG Midget. The current owner is a true classic car enthusiast and has ensured the Land Rover has always been kept garaged, which shows in the condition of this vehicle.
Being an ex RAF there are some factory modifications that the MOD use on their Land Rovers. This includes the fuel tank being under the front passenger seat as shown in the images and quick release bonnet catches to enable rapid repairs in the field.
The Paperwork
Whilst the Land Rover comes with only the log book, it is often possible to find much of the history of ex RAF Land Rovers from various sources such as the RAF museum.
The Interior
Series II Land Rovers aren’t known for their luxurious interiors, however the seats are comfy, visibility is excellent and there is a plethora of storage. This particular Series II even has the optional cabin heater fitted, a welcome addition in our climate! The interior is in good condition throughout, you can tell it’s been well looked after and everything works as it should.
The Exterior
The exterior is in very good overall condition and as with all of the Land Rovers benefits from an aluminium body completely eliminating the risk of rust on the body panels that other vehicles of this vintage suffer from. This, combined with the chassis having been recently repainted, mean that this is a very clean example of a Series II. Finished in the distinctive Blue Grey paint of the RAF and with the yellow roundel still present this is a fantastic example of an MOD Land Rover.
The Mechanics
The Land Rover starts easily from cold and runs well with no unexpected noises apparent, it drives smoothly and the 2/4WD selector works well. These Land Rovers were built to last and this one has been well maintained, as such it provides a fantastic ready to drive example that would be perfect for someone looking for a mechanically sound Series II.
Whilst you might not win many races, it pulls well and this Series II would make for a capable off-roader or a perfect candidate for a full restoration project, or even just an everyday driver thanks to the useful overdrive system.

The current owner has stripped back the chassis to bare metal and painted it, as can be seen in the images the underside is in very good condition.
The Appeal
The Land Rover Series and now Defender range is the stuff of legends. Used on every continent and for almost every imaginable use, from ambulances, through search and rescue, to the school run the classic shape is instantly recognisable. Built with simplicity in mind to enable ease of maintenance and modification, they make fantastic vehicles no matter what you do with them.
The series II is regarded by many as the epitome of the Land Rover Design and is the last one to feature the lights on the grille before they were moved onto the wings.
This series II is ready to drive and with a recent service and overall great mechanical condition it will provide the new owner with a reliable classic that's ready for both on and off road use. If you’d love a Landy (and who wouldn’t!) this Series II is not to be missed.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
