A few of those Series One's were something to do with a electric company if i remember correctly. One of the amphibious looking Land Rover's was a prototype for the Australian army i think.

 

Actually Post Office Engineering (it says so on the door):rofl:

They are all very interest vehicles . I would have commented but know nothing of them beyond the comment made earlier of Land Rover multiple times. Don't feel discouraged .While other members are busy getting ready for shows and such it sometime take a while for the knowledgeable ones to find the post and comment .

OK then CW, I might be wrong, but I think this one is one of the first Series 2 with Rover diesel engine, could be Chassis No. 2. I think its original owner could have been the Milk Marketing Board. If this is correct, I will tell you more.........

My dads landrover was a 12 seater station wagon reg no MXC417D he bought it from a doctor who had bought it back from Africa .

It was fitted with michelin sand tyres and was my mums first car , dad wasnt very happy when mum called one day and said it had broken down and that there was smoke coming from the "bump" in the back axle ,the crown wheel had sheared its bolts from the carrier bearing !!!:shake:

My S1 had Mich Xss sand tyres on it when i bought it,it had been in Tamanrset which is in the middle of the Sahars for a while.You needed a 10 point turn to turn round in a side street as the turning circle was huge.

They were so jelly like the car wobbled if you pushed it sideways:rofl:but in sand unbeatable.

CW,

 

I was hoping you could confirm it was a diesel. I could be wrong, but the registration number rings a bell :confused:

 

That old MMB tanker, I expect it would have been pulled by a Thames Trader then :-D :rofl:

[Degsy]

The 80 reg DSJ 984 is early , headlights behind grill, sidelights on bulkhead, is it one of the pre production models?

Thanks, CW. Not the one I thought it was.

It is an early 4door.Y reg would be correct,The door lock half way up is right for 81 to 83.Vertical bar grill up to 85.Exposed door hinges make it pre 90.Bumper end caps were introduced in 82 made standard in 83 this one doesnt have them,i guess its a genuine early 4 door.Steering wheel 4 spoke up to 88 also fits in.:-DPass me my anarak.
