Absolute 1 off Tax and MOT exempt Range Rover Classic suffix B
It's a 1972 that has had a brand new body swap and a bombproof 2.8 Turbo Diesel ISUZU engine.
All carried out professionally in 1993 at a cost of £5875. The car was subsequently re-valued at £16500, you could have bought a brand new one for 18k back then! See pics for details.
The engine has loads of power, this one goes much better…

The engine has loads of power, this one goes much better than a defender 90 I had with a 200tdi. There are no ecus to worry about, this engine has a mechanical fuel pump. I get around 27 mpg commuting on twisty A roads.
It’s had new front wheel bearings, new front prop uj bearings and a few poly bushes done this year, and would undoubtedly benefit from some more of the bushes being replaced to tighten it up a bit, also vibrates slightly when driving so I expect it’ll want the rear prop uj bearings replacing soon.
There is a diesel parking heater fitted under the passenger seat which is ducted up to the demist vents, and has been a welcome addition this winter.
The truck comes with a pair of heavy duty sill repair panels, and a set of drivers door hinges as these are worn.
My plan was to put a 2 door body back on it given how much they are worth these days, especially being a suffix B, so I wasn’t fussed about doing the sills.
I am currently commuting over 370 miles per week in this Range Rover and it’s just not fair on the poor old thing, please give it the retirement it deserves.
Feel free to come and view, it’s a 52 year old car so is sold as seen, cash on collection.
