- Updated example with Defender TDi engine, gearbox and brakes

This interesting Landie was for many years owned by an elderly couple who loved the vehicle's classic shape but hankered after something easier to drive. So, at considerable expense, they had the key mechanicals professionally updated courtesy of the diesel engine, gearbox, suspension, braking system, dashboard and various other fittings from a 1995 Land Rover TDi; and even went to the extent of installing electric windows. 'BHT 617A' is finished in Cream over Green that's complemented by Black interior trim. This 'cake and eat it' Land Rover is presently considered by the vendor to have 'very good' bodywork and 'good' paintwork, upholstery, engine and transmission. The vehicle's indicated mileage currently stands at an entirely credible 125,615. By the time of the Series IIA of 1961-1971, Land Rover production was at its all-time peak of over 60,000 vehicles per annum. The model is considered by many to be the most durable of all Series variants.
