This 1974 Series III Land-Rover is one of the last vehicles brought into the North American market and has the unusual tropical, or Safari roof. A one-owner vehicle, this seven-passenger Land-Rover Station Wagon is in exceptional condition throughout. The exterior has been stripped to the bare aluminum and the vehicle has been repainted inside and out. This Land-Rover is mechanically superlative and is arguably in the top two percent of Land-Rovers available today in North America. This machine is original and correct to a degree virtually unavailable elsewhere, with all original mechanicals (with the exception of certain no-longer-available smog equipment, which is no longer required, even in California), a superlative interior with no flaws in the trim or upholstery, a fully intact original headliner and all five original factory seats, and correct floor mats.

The engine starts right on the button and purrs as one would expect of a Land-Rover with 47,200 original miles since new. A brief calculation would reveal that this vehicle has been used fewer than 1,500 miles per year during its lifetime. Steering is light and precise, acceleration is the best we see from a bone stock Lane-Rover, the factory power-assisted braking is predictable, well modulated and controllable, and this Land-Rover is a dream to drive. All necessary mechanical repairs, service and upgrades have been performed by seasoned Land-Rover professionals at British Northwest, and this vehicle has been in proper dry storage for the past fifteen years. It has never been driven in the salt and never taken off-road by all appearances, so there is absolutely minimal marking on the chassis.

Optional equipment includes the somewhat rare but desirable hand throttle, safari, or tropical, roof, rear door spare tire carrier, centre and bonnet-mounted spare tire carriers, WARN freewheeling hubs. This vehicle has recently been fitted with a new set of new old stock Genuine Land-Rover/Dunlop rims and is offered complete with the buyer's choice of a new set of four steel radial tires. This vehicle has been maintained with a majority of Genuine Land-Rover and original equipment parts and all lamps, instruments and switches are Genuine Land-Rover, Genuine Lucas, Genuine Smiths etc.. In a word the originality and correctness of this unusual Land-Rover are virtually unrivaled in the market today.. Price includes a 12-month limited warranty and delivery to mainland United States destinations.
