Car Forum / Land Rover Cars / March 2008FS: LHD 110 with blown engine
Hello again all, been away for a while. The saga of my 110 SW is almost over, with Willetts Landrovers Ltd. winding up business to avoid paying up on my claim. As such, since I haven't the money to do her up, she's for sale. Superb condition body and chassis, 1983 110 SW, nine seats (all with belts), roofrack, Dixon Bate adjustable tow hitch with NATO and ball hitches on separate plates, also Sankey trailer. The only thing wrong is the engine: 2.25l diesel which has no power and smokes like a chimney - maybe piston rings, don't know. All the gaskets from the head joint upwards are brand new, so it isn't a leak there. As such, consider it a non-runner, and thus must be trailered away from West France. However, your chance for a real bargain. when I get home next weekend she's going on eBay, so if you are interested (Matthew perhaps?) let me know before then. You can email by removing the obvious, or reply through the group. I'm looking for about £3000. Cheers, Stuart > Hello again all, been away for a while.

Ummmm, d'ya think there'll be a queue? It'd be a bargain at £300. £3000 will get you a reasonably nice, RHD, runner without having to spend a fortune going to France to collect the bugger.

I've got a mate in Czech who wants a LHD 90 turbo-diesel, but he wants a decent runner. I think that is where the problem lies. Who the hell is going to pay £3k for a dead 2.25 110? I think the OP would be better off flogging his accessories, like the Sankey trailer, and putting a more realistic price on the 110. Or, preferably an engine in it. With a decent engine it'd be worth £3k, no worries. SignaturePete M - OMF#9 Range Rover V8 Turbo Scorpio Ultima 24v "Professional Petrolhead" > >>>> Hello again all, been away for a while.

However, 110s have a much better resale value in France (yes, they are a bit rare), so on to eBay it goes! Thanks for the input, everyone. > > >>>> Hello again all, been away for a while.

Take a look at the LHD Rovers on eBay.fr - there aren't that many, and the prices are higher than eBay.co.uk >I haven't seen many RHD Land Rovers available, but in general RHD is >quite popular amongst the French (the driver is further from the point >of impact... :) ).

Of course, the alternative is, can anyone supply me with a decent engine or engine/gearbox combo for next to nothing?

But given that I bought a '91 200Tdi 110 CSW with a full MOT and in great nick apart from scabby middle row doors and no headlining for £3k, I still think the value placed is somewhat on the high side! Either that, or I got a sodding bargain. And I aint known for getting bargains... -- >> > I haven't seen many RHD Land Rovers available, but in general RHD is >> > quite popular amongst the French (the driver is further from the [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >high side! Either that, or I got a sodding bargain. And I aint known >for getting bargains... But it's LHD and in France. OK, there may not be much of a demand, but there's a very small supply of such. As such, we can't really apply British price values. I wouldn't give 3K for it either, in this country. SignatureAustin Shackles. www.ddol-las.net my opinions are just that Travel The Galaxy!

Personally, I'd be looking for LHD to drive regularly in France, even in a Landy. £3K is OTT, IMHO, but you gain nothing by starting at a low price. You can always come down...

I have seen 2 dreadful vehicles come out of there for top money. They have a habit of buying crap and giving it a coat of paint then charging a fortune for it.

The saga of my 110 SW is >> almost over, with Willetts Landrovers Ltd. winding up business to [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > £500 at best matey. I may have been interested, but a mate of mine has just bought a very similar one that was just running badly, for 1000 euros! He just cleaned it all up and now it is running spot on. That was a bargain! Anyway, I'm trying to save up for a D3, but the buggers are all 5 seater manuals here (even HSE), so the 7 auto's are rare and expensive, and with Sarky's new showroom tax of up to 9000euros (not sure where the D3 fits, but you can bet near the top end), they ain't gonna get any cheaper any time soon! which may mean I have to look at a Td5 instead.
