I unfortunately need to sell my 1984 Land Rover Lightweight 24volt FFR 2.25 petrol, which was first issued to 40 royal marine commando and stayed until it was decommissioned 1998. It comes as I believe it left the military, except for the radio equipment and radio controllers seat having been removed, and the fitting of an immobiliser. It comes with a desert sun visor, small canvas and hoops, jerry cans, water can and union flag, which are believed to have come with it from the MOD. It has just had a reconditioned generator fitted, as well as replacement second hand control control box following some issues with the 24V system, which have now been resolved (at great expense) but on a positive note means that the whole electrical system was given a full going over by the specialists who carried out the work. Comes with a full MOT (Expires 31 May 2017) no advisories and is fitted with Overdrive gearbox. The baskets on the bonnet were only put on special forces forward operating vehicles. They where used for cam nets so they could rolled out and covered fast. The engine is fitted with water prof HT leads distributor cap etc It is not in bad condition given it is over 30 years old but these are the bits I know need doing (see photos): The bulkhead vent panel has seen better days, and need repair or replacing.

There are two small holes on side of the passenger footwell, though apart from these the main bulkhead is solid. Probably also a repaint, though personally I like the current paint as it gives it character. Mileage reads around 38,500 (subject to change as vehicle still in use) however when I checked the MOT history the milage didn't change between the 2006 and 2008 MOT's so this cannot be taken as fact. Please note this is an old land rover, it is noisy and bouncy to drive, with drum brakes that although working are not like those in modern cars, however despite this, driving it does put a big grin on your face.

I'm not a land rover expert or mechanically minded, but will do my best to answer any queries, or provide photographs that will. Vehicle is in N London and viewings can be accommodated during evenings or weekends. If you send a private message on here with any question and a contact number happy to cal back. The Small canvas is actually a full canvas with rear screen in generally good condition but has a couple of holes on one side, it would certainly be serviceable with small patch repairs.

There are two full hoops, and one top hoop, as well as the fitting that goes above the screen. I also failed to report as one of the changes since it's military days being that it has had carpet stuck to the underside of the roof of the hard top only the roof, not the sides. Apologies for the late notification of this.
