Land Rover: Defender County Station Wagon

Here we have a superb opportunity to purchase a genuine Defender 110 County Station Wagon that was first registered on 22nd January 1986. making it nearly 30 years old. The papers show it as having 2 registered keepers. the last being the owner since 1992. He has owned and cherished this car for 24 years.

Now this is quite a unique opportunity. Being owned by someone for so long he has really looked after it. He has had a galvanised chassis fitted! It is a Designa Chassis and these retail at around $4000 new. Imagine the cost of shipping that to Canada or America and you can see why this is such a good opportunity. In real terms it adds nothing to the value of the vehicle for shipping and it cost no more to ship! To get a chassis fitted is $2500 in labour and shipping and the chassis would be $5000 at least. You are getting $7500 worth of chassis for no extra cost.

The V8 engine was rebuilt a few years ago and was rebored to 3. 9. It is the original engine. It drives really nicely and has loads of power. Now this engine also has had an lpg conversion done on it. We have not tried the LPG system but it runs perfectly on petrol.  We are more than happy to remove the lpg system if this not something you want. It is a very cheap fuel in the Uk and was a popular conversion but personally I prefer them running on petrol but that's up to you.

This is either a project vehicle that is well underway or its good to go as an everyday drive. However you wish to approach this as a project there are huge savings to make over buying from a dealer that has “restored” this sort of thing. Get involved early with us and make the decisions about interiors etc or buy as it is being sold and you have either a great spring and summer project to get your teeth into or an everyday drive that is as original as it comes. We can supply all the parts needed and make up a kit for you if you like…. What better family bonding experience with your son/daughter. Technical advice from us 24/7 is free of charge!

We are listing it as it stands but can happily quote for any works you would like done. For me to have this vehicle on the road I would want to remove. tidy up and galvanise the bulkhead. The sills have been done and are perfect as are the cappings. I would redo the suspension and repolybush for piece of mind. The doors are OK but new style ones or aftermarket replacements would be worthwhile.  The rear door is shot! It would look great with a retrimmed interior either using Exmoor trims moorland retrim kits or with their later style seats and make amazing! The choice is yours. We can ship with all the parts you need for you to do the works or the garage of your choice. Exmoor trim parts without going through the USA distributor and extortionate prices!

Full Land Rover Heritage Certificate included in the sale.

Price is plus shipping to your house and we can put it on your drive at cost.
