Noteworthy features of this short-wheelbase Land Rover include a factory hardtop that has factory sliding side windows and factory curved Alpine Lights. It has the optional rear bench seat and a comfortable driver's seat in non-matching material. Coach painted in Bronze Green, the vehicle has been fitted with a superior Perkins diesel engine, which starts well and is economical and powerful enough to keep up with modern traffic. The Landie is also fitted with the desirable overdrive gearbox and freewheeling hubs. New brake cylinders were fitted to rear axle in November 2020. 'ROL 701G' has covered fewer than 1,400 miles since May 2006 and was retrieved recently from long-term warehouse storage in Herefordshire. We are advised that a test drive of 20 miles demonstrated that its major functions are in working order; that it starts enthusiastically; changes into all gears; and that the overdrive unit engages correctly.
