Descrizione
Original Series 2A Station Wagon (Safari) with a tropical roof, registered in 1971. In outstanding original condition and showing 103, 000 miles, which is believed to be genuine.
The double-skinned tropical roof was a luxury item and designed to keep an air flow around the inside of the vehicle in hot weather by opening the internal ceiling vents.
Original Smiths (rectangular) heater is fitted.
The original chassis and bulkhead are in sound condition and require no renovation, always having been treated and maintained properly.
Brand new Insa Ranger 235/ 85R16 tyres (less than 50 miles). Also recently replaced are the rear door, both front door tops & bottoms, shock absorbers, fuel tank and exhaust and various other parts in the course of regular maintenance.
The brakes have just been overhauled and a new master cylinder fitted. The brakes are now very efficient.
New clutch master cylinder and fuel lift pump.
The original 2. 3 litre petrol engine runs perfectly and pulls strongly. The original 4 speed gearbox is all syncro, as these last Series 2As were fitted with the Series 3 gearbox.
Many extras are fitted including deluxe front seats, side steps, rear mounted jerry can, front wing mounted shovel and pick, bonnet mounted spare, rubber floor mats throughout, twin Lucas horns, inspection lamp etc. Fold-up rear seats. A new full all-weather cover will be included.
Paintwork unmarked in Land Rover mid (Welsh) Grey.
Classic car insurance (fully comprehensive) costs me £78 per year. ULEZ exempt, tax free and no need for an MOT.
This lovely Land Rover has never been messed about and is as straight as you would wish to find and good for another 52 years if cared for as it has been. It always attracts a lot of attention wherever it goes.
The V5 is in my name and the Land Rover comes with a British Motor Museum Heritage Certificate. There is a large dossier of vehicle documents from DVLA in response to my V888 submission for historical records. The documents list the previous owners and locations where the vehicle was taxed over the years, going back to its first registration in 1971 (including a copy of the original buff log book RF60/ VE60).
The registration number VAM 855J and chassis number are both the original from first registration and, as all numbers match, this Land Rover is suitable for export to the USA.
This is an honest and genuine private sale and a sound investment for the new owner, as the prices of genuine Land Rovers are only going one way.
I am downsizing due to ill-health. Viewing in Norfolk is welcomed, or I can talk you through a viewing on Whatsapp. Give me a ring on the details below if you would like a chat.
Payment by bank transfer or cash on collection. Outstanding original condition. Genuine private sale. Sound investment. Good for another 52 years.
