It will come with 12 months MOT from the point of sale. 2286cc petrol engine which is a fantastically smooth runner and first time starter. Drives as a Series 3 should, and settles quickly to a nice steady idle. The gearbox is smooth in operation with no clunks or noises, as is the clutch.
The brakes are better than most Series 3`s around, as they do actually stop you in a nice straight line without issue. The steering is nice too, no doubt helped by the Michelin Latitude 7.50 x 16 road tyres all round. It also has parabolic springs fitted for a nicer ride, along with Pro Comp shock absorbers.Finished in Bronze Green with a brand new sand canvas hood from Exmoor trim. The usual Land Rover Series areas are all solid, including the bulkhead, door rails, chassis, rear crossmember and out riggers. I have left the chassis "as is" so untreated. This is so any perspective buyers can see it`s true condition, and not hide anything under waxoyl etc. As a result, it has the expected surface rust present.
New deluxe seats recently fitted to the front, along with a pair of bench seats with seatbelts to the rear. Tailored rubber footwell mats finish the interior off well. The dash is in good order, with just a couple of very minor cracks. Test drives and viewings are welcome and encouraged, but I have added a link to photobucket below with 80 + pictures so any potential buyers can use these to get a true reflection of the condition. The vehicle must be paid for by midday on Friday 13 th May at the very latest as I go on holiday the next morning.
