Special Vehicles - Has Anyone Dealth With ?

Has anyone had any dealings with LRSV's Division via a main dealer?

Love my 110 DCPU but the next 110 DCPU when I come to change it, I'd like some mods to the rear pickup tub to make it more practical which means I'd probably keep it until its falls to bits and works no more.

Has anyone had any dealings with them, if so, how was the experience and what are they like on the bangers and mash? (Would I have to remortgage?

)

Basically, I'm after a 110 DCPU but with a 130 style ribbed pickup tray. The tailgate is full width meaning you can get things in more easily and there is a slightly different arrangement over the arches. I have seen photos of 110's like this... so I know they do them.

I've only ever seen one or two converted that way and always assumed they were DIY rather than Special Vehicles

hmmm, might be a trip to the stealer to make an enquiry then. I found a LRSV's downloadable catalogue on the net for 2007 (UK) and they seemed to offer a huge array of alterations to all 3 chasis lengths together with a massive selection of options from full roll cages to flashing beacons!

If Land Rover can't do it then I'm sure another company could. Foleys perhaps? Darren

Aye, I've got Foleys details here. Will give them a buzz in the new year if no joy

Isn't that just for the 110 regular pick-up though, Dan? Martyn's talking about a shortened version of that on a 110 double cab. Darren

The type of body is after market. I believe Nene have one on their website currently.

You would need a 110 double cab chassis cab which isnt avilable from LRSV.

Not the best photo and ignore the camper bit, I think this is the sort of body you are thinking of?

Here's what I'm on about;

It's a 110 and that looks like a LR jobby to me. Looks better than the Nene attempt; which looks like its been "plonked on"

That's a local market conversion, I think to get round a tax issue based on load space. Note the high level brake light as well.

Sadly definitely not a uk sv option

Go look on aulro.com in Australia they have them all the time, think they call them traybacks which is a flat platform on the back but im sure ive seen a HCPU body on the back of a 110 over there.
