CVL 913X – a 1981 Series III is a familiar face. Originally sold by us in 2001, when it had covered a genuine 28,000 miles. It now returns to us from Suffolk having covered a further 17,000 miles in the last 10 years, bringing the total covered to 45,000. It also benefits from a galvanised chassis, safari roof and 4 individual rear seats.
This Land Rover will be fully serviced and MOT’d before being offered for sale.

Friday 18th December
We are often asked if we can “source” good 2 door Range Rovers, and I have to tell potential buyers that it is not a vehicle we can just go out and buy – we have to be patient and wait for nice examples to turn up. Well, today is one of those days that we have been waiting patiently for.
WWT 59J is a superb 1971 2 Door Range Rover – finished in Tuscan Blue – but with a difference. This one has had a total ground up restoration, including having the original chassis galvanised and powder coated – PLUS the fitting of a 200TDi Diesel engine, and matching LT77 5 speed gearbox. This is a very original looking, 2 door, but with the usability of the more modern diesel engine.
Monday 19th December
ANU 672A – the 1962 Series IIA Land Rover that we have been preparing for Ian in Cumbria is finished and ready to be collected and driven home in time for Christmas !
Friday 30th December
Last delivery of the year – GDL 56N is transported safely to Southampton Docks, on the first leg of it’s journey to Jonathan in South Africa.
