The previous keeper has had it for the last 2 years and used it to go back and forth to work (6 miles a day). It has covered a genuine 84,000 miles and it has only done 8,000 miles since 2005.

It has an MOT until the first week in June and it has only done around 1500 miles since last year and it has passed the last 2 MOT's with no advisory items. It comes with some old MOT''s etc. It has the 2.25 petrol engine and a 4 speed gearbox fitted. The exterior is in very good condition for a 46 year old Land Rover. The sides are nice and straight and there are no major marks at all.

There is the odd light mark here and there as you would expect from a 46 year old Land Rover. It does look like its had some work here and there as you would expect from a Land Rover of this age.

The paintwork has been freshened up by one of the keepers at some point. It will not win any concourse events but it is very presentable indeed for one of these. The chassis is very solid indeed.

It has had some welding here and there but it has been done to a very high standard and does not need anything doing. The wheels are all original and have good tyres fitted, There is a heavy duty rear step and a rear work light has been fitted. The interior is in good condition. The 3 front seats are finished in a leather/vinyl material and they are actually in very good condition apart from a tiny piece of wear to the drivers side seat bolster.

The door cards have been replaced at some points and some one has cut speaker holes in them. The steering column surround is missing but another could easily be sourced if required. The rear has just one bench seat so two people can be seated in the rear. Another bench seat could be installed if required to take it back up to a 7 sweater.

The flooring is all good and there are carpets as well as rubber over mats. The rear flooring has been chequer plated for added longevity.

All in all for 46 years old its very good indeed. The 2.25 petrol engine is like a little sewing machine and runs very very well indeed. The 4 speed gearbox has been recently rebuilt and you can tell with how precise the gear changes are.

These series box's are notorious for being sloppy and hard to find the gears but this is different altogether and is super precise. The clutch was changed at the same time also and is excellent.

Free wheeling hubs are fitted for added fuel economy. The brakes and steering are excellent and there is even a very good heater and blower which all works on all the speeds.

No nasty bangs from the driveline or from the suspension. All in all very very good indeed. It is happy no faster than 50 mph as you would expect. The item "1971 LAND ROVER SERIES 3 2.25 STATION WAGON IN RED WITH GENUINE LOW MILES" is in sale since Friday, March 03, 2017.
