KEY FACTS This Land Rover Series II 109” is a classic British 4x4, which is noted to have been preserved using period-correct parts when needed.

Under the bonnet sits the original 2.25-litre (2,286 cc) ‘151’ inline-four petrol engine fed by a Solex carburettor, which sends its power to all four wheels via a four-speed manual transmission with high and low range gearing.

Built in September 1959 and despatched to Land Rover dealer Botwoods, Ipswich, it has been with the seller for seven years.

The odometer shows 60,562 miles, though this is not warranted.
