Land Rover Series 2.3 TDI 72 PS, 1977 р.в.

Highlights Desirable short-wheelbase 88-inch Series IIIPreviously remodelled by Land Rover specialistConverted from petrol to dieselMOT and road tax exemptThe AppealFew British vehicles are as instantly recognisable, or as deeply embedded in the national motoring landscape, as the Land Rover. Equally at home on a farm track, country estate, building site or village high street, it earned its reputation through durability, simplicity and remarkable versatility rather than any concern for luxury or fashion.This 1977 Series III is presented in an attractive blue-and-white colour scheme and is reported to have been remodelled by a Land Rover specialist. It has also been converted from petrol to diesel power, a popular and practical modification for those seeking the durability and low-speed flexibility associated with Land Rover diesel engines.The vehicle retains a pleasingly honest appearance, with some minor indentations to the bodywork noted. Rather than detracting from its character, these marks are in keeping with the robust, working nature of the model and avoid the overly restored look sometimes seen on utilitarian classics.This Series III should appeal to an enthusiast seeking a usable and rewarding classic Land Rover project, with scope for further refinement while retaining its authentic, well-earned character. image.png 1.71 MBKey InformationMileage: 30,500 miles (indicated)Country of registration: United Kingdom Technical inspection status: MOT-exemptTechnical specs: 2.25-litre inline-four diesel, four-speed manual gearboxPaperwork: British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate, photographs of the car, previous MOT certificatesimage.png 1.28 MBThe DetailOriginally specified in Mid Grey, now finished in white with blue roofWhite 16-inch steel wheelsInterior features three black vinyl front seats, with fold-down bench seating in the rear load areaSpare wheel mounted in the rear load areaIndentation noted on bonnet badgePatina and age-related wear are visible across the bodyworkReported to have been remodelled by a Land Rover specialistAcquired privately by the seller from Somerset and now located in DorsetPreviously converted from petrol to dieselimage.png 1.35 MBBEFORE YOU BUY This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions.
