110 Launch - When in 1983
Hi All,

I am looking to get my hands onto an early 110 and am trying to find out more about the launch ones if I can as I want to find out how early the particular vehicle I am looking at actually is.

I know the launch was sometimes in 1983 and the vehicle i've found is early 1983 but cannot work out what the official launch date was. it's strange that there is so much detail available on very very early Land Rovers but not so much about ones that are more recent. Any information greatly recieved

Dave

I tried to find out the same info a couple of years ago as I had a 110 that had a build date in Feb 1983 and registered on 9 March 1983. The best I could ascertain was the 110 was launched at the Geneva Motor Show at the beginning of March.

Happy to be shot down in flames by anyone who knows better Laughing Fixing Land Rovers for over 25 years..........and making excuses to the wife for almost as long Smile

It is also my understanding that the One Ten was launched in March 1983. Early One Ten and Ninety land rovers are becoming difficult to find in good original condition. 2006 TD5110 station wagon

This one is April 1983 and despite more searching last night I couldn't find any more information or pictures other than one of a "CWK" 110 but I think that must have been an pre-production model as it was registered in late 1982.

The vehicle I'm chasing is not particularly brilliant when it comes to originality; for example it's missing it's front sliding Windows and has had one piece doors put on instead. It's in that lovely brown colour mind except it's about 5 different shades of it!
