1984 LAND ROVER 110

KEY FACTS

• A good, solid example of the classic 4x4, which has been lightly modified and benefits from recent refurbishment.
• Under the bonnet is a later 200Tdi engine, which produces 109bhp and 188lb-ft of torque, driving all four wheels through a five-speed manual transmission.
• Predating the introduction of the Defender name, this Land Rover 110 was first registered in September 1984, and was acquired by the seller one year ago.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• Bidders should note that the seller does not have keys for the side doors – so these can only be locked/unlocked from inside. However, there is a separate ignition key, and another key to lock the rear door.
• This classic Land Rover is finished in a charming shade of dark green with a white painted roof, and complemented by black cloth and vinyl upholstery in the cabin.
• It rides on a set of 16-inch steel wheels, which feature various small scuffs and blemishes on their white painted surfaces, but are free of any dents or significant damage.
• Mechanically, this Land Rover 110 has been rejuvenated, having been retrofitted with a later 200Tdi engine, as well as a new fuel tank and fuel lines, uprated Terrafirma suspension dampers and a replacement exhaust system, as well as benefiting from a full electrical rewiring.
• The vendor also notes that the chassis has previously been replaced, and this already rugged vehicle has been given an even more purposeful look with the addition of black mesh headlamp grilles and steel chequer plate panels on its sills and upper front wings.
• The vehicle will be accompanied by its V5c registration certificate, its latest MOT test certificate and an invoice for its recent maintenance.

CONDITION

• No known bodywork damage.
• The green paintwork has been refreshed in the past, and is in good order, with some general use-related marks and scratches around the vehicle, as well as bubbling and visible corrosion on the driver’s door.
• Inside, the cabin presents well, though there are two cuts on the ride-hand driver’s seat bolster as shown in the gallery.
• All of the switches and electrical items have recently been checked and attended to, and now work without fault.
• The vehicle’s last MOT test was conducted on 28 July 2021 at 179,899 miles, which it passed with no advisories after various issues were rectified, including high exhaust emissions, play in the offside drag link end ball joint, and cracking rear tyres.

SERVICE HISTORY

• This Land Rover 110’s most recent routine maintenance was carried out in July 2021 at 179,899 miles by Laceby Motors, who replaced the air filter and oil filter, rewired the electrical systems, and changed the oil pressure switch, exhaust o-ring and both rear tyres.

SUMMARY

This 1984 Land Rover 110 is a handsome example of the iconic utility vehicle, equipped with a later 200Tdi engine, uprated suspension components and a replacement chassis. Recently refurbished and brought up to a good standard, it would make a fine year-round daily driver, or could easily be pressed into service as a robust and characterful workhorse.
