The Appeal
The 1969 Series 2A Land Rover is a beloved classic, known for its rugged charm and off-road prowess. Utterly iconic, their unique blend of British milieu and military-esque engineering has made them a beloved, common sight across the British countryside.
This particular example, however, goes to a whole new level with a host of modern upgrades. Fitted with a powerful BMW M57 3.0 diesel engine and an R380 gearbox with a Discovery transfer case, this Land Rover offers a unique blend of vintage aesthetics and contemporary performance.
Offering a unique package we don't believe we've come across before, this marvellous 2A is finished in bare aluminium to offset its unique combination of the modern and the retro - and will no doubt attract plenty of curious glances its way.
