Description
KEY FACTS A rugged and iconic British 4x4, this Land Rover Series III 88" is an enduring utilitarian classic finished in a head-turning colour scheme. It is powered by a 2.25-litre (2286cc) inline-four petrol engine, driving all four wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. First registered in 1974, and currently located in Belgium. The odometer shows 29,662 km, though this is not warranted. EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES This example was converted by the Beherman-Demoen workshop in Brussels, evidenced by an identification plate, and features a 24V electrical system.

It rides on steel wheels with 7.50 R16 tyres, and features a spare wheel mounted on the bonnet. Equipment includes a removable hardtop, a folding windscreen, NATO tow hitch, front and rear towing eyes, shovel and pickaxe mounts, a fuel can holder, and twin batteries. It is fitted with twin fuel tanks, but the right one is currently decommissioned, so would need to be reconnected. Accompanied by invoices and other documents in the seller's possession, a chassis number certificate from Land Rover Mons, and one key.
