1989 LAND ROVER 90 PICK UP

KEY FACTS

• A custom example of the short-wheelbase Pick Up, which now presents well following notable refurbishment works.
• Under the bonnet sits a 2.5-litre 300Tdi inline-four engine, which drives all four wheels through a transplanted automatic transmission with high and low-range gearing.
• In addition to resprayed bodywork, the interior has received a full bespoke re-trim.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• While originally equipped with a manual transmission, this was swapped to the current automatic gearbox by a previous owner.
• The car has recently been resprayed from the original white into the current green colour.
• It was also fitted with a new half-chassis during 2020.
• The interior has been refreshed with custom upholstery in distressed brown leather, with the new trim on the seat covers, rear bulkhead, lower door panel, steering wheel rim, and the central cubby box.
• Under the carpets, Dynamat soundproofing has been fitted to improve the day-to-day refinement.
• Included is a limited service history, incorporating some prior invoices and bills.

CONDITION

• There is no known prior damage to the bodywork.
• The paintwork is in good order on account of the relatively recent respray, though there are small patches of corrosion and bubbling, mostly around some of the steel body fixtures and trims.
• Inside, the renewed interior is in excellent overall condition, though has some light wear noted to the edges of the dashboard, lower seat cushions and inner door sills.
• There are no known faults with the vehicle.
• The most recent MOT test took place on 18 December 2020, resulting in a first-time pass with advisories for both front track rod end ball joint rubber dust covers being damaged.

SERVICE HISTORY

• The vendor notes that the vehicle was last serviced approximately 18 months ago.
• In addition to servicing, the vehicle also received a new half-chassis in 2020, and has been fitted with new brake pads and discs.
