Thank you for taking the time to read this description about this Series III Land Rover.
Listed above really is just scratching the surface on the huge level of thought and detail which has gone into the restoration of this vehicle.
This isn't just a Land Rover resto project, its a Father and Son undertaking to build the perfect Iconic British machine which is made to last. No expense spared, every single part, every single nut and bolt has be un-done, rebuilt or replaced over a few years. A total rebuild mechanically and cosmetically.
Any part replaced or refurbed has been done so with the mindset of making this machine last a lifetime. But also done to stay in keep with genuine originality and class. There are no ghastly modern aftermarket ad ons. Only Genuine parts have ever been used even if they have had to be sourced from Cyprus! such as the tailgate and the heater box. Every effort made to ensure if a part needed to be replaced that it will only ever be the right part.

We invite anyone who is interested to please come and view the vehicle. Anyone who does will instantly recognise this as an opportunity to own one of the best Series III examples you will have ever come across.
Welcome any questions, feel free to ask.
