Was that not the kind of thing Guy Martin had bouncing around one of the HGV Workshops where he used to work in Lincolnshire?

I read one of his books, and if I recall correctly he started it up one lunch time then decided to give it a bit more welly. It was after this it started bouncing around the workshop, but more worryingly, bouncing off some of his boss's customers lorries.

In reply to your post, who wouldn't want one of those Thumbs Up

^^^ It didn't sell Whistle Not sure you'd get it under the bonnet of your 110 though? Laughing

Looks exactly the same as the one Guy Martin put through the wall of the workshop! It was in one of his TV programmes where he said he was only allowed to start it up outside now! Rolling with laughter James

I see the Series II went for £10800 (top end of esitmate) and the Toyland reached £5,625 Shocked


Given it was a LWB diesel I guess there wasn’t a huge demand, however after saying that it is a lovely unrestored 109 and seeing some of the tarted up tat that’s on sale I know which I would have. It’s the nicest S2A 109 I have seen for a very long time.

They've got a few interesting vehicles listed in that sale, but keeping Land Rover flavoured this one caught my eye https://online.handh.co.uk/m/lot-details/i...d%2F118%2F

Although the Rolls Royce Merlin engine on a trailer, they also have listed, would be great for clearing the leaves from the garden this time of year https://online.handh.co.uk/m/lot-details/i...8%2F[/img]


The LWB 2A has been on eBay a couple of time and didn’t sell. I have to say it does look a cracking Land Rover especially if you want a LWB. Diesel. I wonder if that’s a later steering wheel, perhaps Slidey will be along to confirm Thumbs Up


The steering wheel is correct for a D plate.
I think they changed from wire spoked to plastic steering wheel mid 1965. The plastic steering wheel is similar to the series three one but has the horn button in the centre.

Yes, I thought the steering wheel was correct too, but was too lazy to double-check it on the SII Cub timeline. (Apologies Defender9 Thumbs Up )


Hate seeing pics of early two-door Range Rovers, as I sold mine too cheap a few years ago.

Number 1,800 off the line and un-restored, the new owner rubbed in the pain by sending me a couple of pics of it, a year later:

I sold it because I actually found it boring to drive. (Too comfortable. Laughing )

Early Rangys were stunning in Lincoln Green, mine was an early K reg in Tucson Blue, I bought it as a restoration project very cheaply, all the steel work was rusted out apart from the chassis which was excellent. I bought which I think was the last 2 door body frame from Hobson’s in Lincs which was ex factory and painted Lincoln Green. I think I would have done the whole car in Lincoln Green but all the outer panels were in Tucson Blue, so the Hobson parts were also painted in that colour. It was a fantastic everyday car and I liked the comfort, unfortunately on twisty roads the kids were usually car sick Rolling Eyes

I just love the early rrc, definitely next on my shopping list, but going to need a lottery win before I get away with it!

I just love the character of this particular one, with the matching roof, rostyles and stripe. Would that have been a factory finish or bespoke option?

I saw a late rrc soft dash for sale locally for £1,250, needed a little work, but looked in decent condition, wish I'd got it but soon snapped up. But does give hope of ever finding genuine bargains. James
