109 Series III; ex MoD communication vehicle; only 43,503 miles showing; appears to be a re-conditioned engine; driven 70 miles to the auctionNow UK registered, this Land rover 109in ex-military MoD communication vehicle was apparently used on the island of Malta and has still got military radios installed in the rear.
With a mild decommissioning taking place, it generally appears in lovely original condition and a large file of paperwork on file might show you how to use all the knobs and dials!The petrol 2,286cc reconditioned engine coupled up to its manual gearbox certainly runs and drives, with a low mileage of only 43,503 miles showing.Lots of paperwork including many original manuals for the radio system in the rear, clean chassis and good bodywork (for an ex-military) with good tyres all around, this landy was driven just over 70 miles to the auction.Great opportunity to take part in numerous military shows or add to any themed collection or museum.
