KEY FACTS A charming and iconic classic British 4x4, this Land Rover Series IIA 88" is presented after a full restoration. It is powered by a 2.25-litre petrol inline-four, driving all four wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. First registered in February 1962, this example was acquired by the seller in April 2021. The odometer indicates 62,048 miles, though this is not warranted. EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES Finished in the charming shade of Pastel Green with a khaki canvas roof, over a body-coloured cabin featuring black vinyl-trimmed seats. It rides on a set of 16-inch steel wheels finished in cream and fitted with Security tyres. Equipment includes a three-spoke steering wheel, sliding windows, basic ventilation slats, a high- and low-range gearbox, Jaeger gauges, a hinged windscreen, and a heater. Accompanied by a spare wheel, the V5C, and a large collection of maintenance and parts invoices. One ignition key is included. CONDITION Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. The most recent MOT test was on 9 December 2020 at an indicated 60,944 miles, which resulted in a second-time pass with no advisories. SERVICE HISTORY It was most recently serviced in March 2026 at an indicated 62,048 miles by Hadfield Motors, which included an engine oil and filter change, new rear brake drums and shoes, new spark plugs, the brake fluid being changed, and a new wheel bearing. Please note: a large collection of maintenance invoices and parts receipts can be seen in the photo gallery.
