The Background
There are few cars as Iconic as the Land Rover, with worldwide recognition the Land Rovers have proven to be some of the most capable and hardy vehicles on the planet. The first Land Rover was built in 1940 and since then subsequent refinement over generations have given us the Defender we know and love today. This 110 County is one of the last Land Rover 110s before the first Defenders as we know them were made in 1990 when Land Rover changed the name From Land Rover 90/110 to Defender 90, 110 or 130.
This 110 was made for the South African market and as such benefits from a fully galvanised chassis. Used as a highways agency vehicle in South Africa it also has dual fuel tanks and a potable water tank. The car was imported into the UK in 2018 where it has undergone extensive mechanical improvements by the current owner.
The interior has had new Techno Grey seats fitted and the original Blue Velour seats are included. The seats are in good condition as well as the rest of the interior such as the dashboard. As for the carpet and door card panels, they are in great shape as well with only a slight break noted in the rear card panel. There are some signs of wear around the air vents but overall, the interior is in good condition.
Whilst the paint shows signs of age it is in overall fair condition and overall this 110 presents very well, thanks in part to the Galvanized chassis. Whilst there is scope for improvement cosmetically there are no pressing issues and the car looks good. All door frames are corrosion free, however the skins are showing some oxidisation.
The car has undergone extensive work since coming into the country including: suspension bushes, power steering pump, brake shoes and wheel cylinders. Fuel injection conversion with Lucas 14CUX fuel injection system, Rover used these systems on later models and this system gives a significant boost to both power and efficiency. Upgraded ignition system featuring mallory distributor and sports ignition coil.
SS tubular stainless exhaust system including the manifolds. Boost alloy wheels fitted with new general grabber tyres. TD5 Seats in Techno Grey - including the ones for the boot and also available is the original Blue velour interior. No corrosion, but lots of desert dust from its time in South Africa. The bodywork is all original. The car is fitted with aircon however it is R12 and would need converting. New rear seat belts. Mechanically this 110 is really very good.
This is a fantastic example of the renowned 110 and has several key benefits over others from this time. The mechanical treatment this car has had since being brought into the country makes it a fantastic ready to use example that's hard to beat. With its rugged good looks and an off road pedigree that is unmatched from other manufacturers this 110 CSW presents a great opportunity to acquire an iconic and capable vehicle.
