Description
1987 Land Rover 90 – 2. 5 Petrol – R380 Conversion – Superb Condition
1987 Land Rover 90 finished in traditional blue and presented in superb condition following extensive refurbishment and mechanical work. A genuine, usable classic that retains its original character while benefiting from a number of well-considered upgrades.
127, 515 miles
2. 5L petrol engine paired with a newer R380 short bellhousing manual gearbox, transforming drivability compared to the original transmission.
The vehicle underwent a full respray last year and presents extremely well throughout. The chassis has been professionally wax treated and oiled and is in very good order. Interior remains largely original with factory-style 3-seat configuration, keeping the authentic period feel. Rear load area is empty and ready for whatever upgrades you choose. With some partial soundproofing, however this needs completing due to funds being spent on new gearbox.
Recent work and upgrades include:
• New Turner cylinder head
• R380 short bellhousing gearbox conversion
• Uprated Puma doors and handles
• Chassis wax/ oil protection
• Full exterior and interior respray
• Wheels all in perfect condition with BF Goodrich tyres
MOT until March 2027 and becomes MOT exempt eligible next year.
Partial service history included, alongside a large folder of receipts documenting substantial expenditure over the years. Original purchase documentation and historic paperwork also present. Lots of spares and original style headlamps included in sale.
A very honest and well-sorted example with significant money spent in the right areas. Starts, drives and presents exactly as a properly maintained classic Land Rover should. 5 owners including myself.

I am willing to consider serious offers, before she goes into auction. I bought her because I have always wanted a landrover. She is amazing, everytime I driver her I smile, however she deserves to be a second car not an only car. She is so complete that she will give you the time to spend on interior and extras
