Condition 

6

The vehicle has undergone significant restoration work, including a replacement engine and transmission. However, it has had 10 previous owners, and the battery is flat, indicating some current issues. The presence of old MOTs and a valid current MOT with no advisories suggests good maintenance, but the cosmetic condition is not fully detailed.

Description Interesting 90 that's seen some useful works and improvements inc.

big tyres; sump gaurd, checker plate; sunroof; snorkel, replacement 300TDI engine, 300TDI transmission and Salisbury axles Dating from March 1987 this Land Rover 90 4C is finished in Red and sits atop a yellow chassis and has been the subject of what looks to have been significant overhaul works including fitment of a donor 300TDI engine and transmission as well as some interior trim from a 1998 Defender 300TDI.

Photos on file show the body and chassis being worked on and restored during which time the chassis and engine bay were painted yellow.

We are also told the axles fitted are Salisbury variants offering better road manners than the conventional items giving the 300tdi unit more scope on modern roads.

Looking rather beefy on it big tyres and utilitarian steel wheels with checker plating, sump guard and snorkel, this truck looks like it could be rather a lot of fun on a green lane or two.
