Description
For sale, through JOHN BROWN 4X4 LTD, Land Rover® 90 Ragtop in NATO Green (1986).
2495cc Diesel. MOT until 31st July 2025 with no advisories. Just 80, 067 KM's on the clock - this equates to just 49, 751. 33 miles - only 1309 miles a year! Bonnet Mounted Spare. Rear Bumperettes. Pioneer Tools. Recent Canvas. NATO Hitch. Michelin 4x4 tyres.
We are delighted to present for sale this super low-mileage Land Rover® 90, which has covered just over 49, 000 miles in 38 years, equating to just over 1300 a year since new. This particular example also has an MOT with no advisories until the end of July 2025 too.... it will only require 2 more MOTs until it is MOT & Tax Exempt also - and when one considers the modernity on offer here with power steering, front disc brakes, coil springs and five speed gearbox - this is a really attractive prospect for a potential buyer who is looking for a fuss free and low cost ownership experience.
Externally, this has all the hallmarks one would expect of a good ex-military 90 of this period - the bonnet mounted spare, the whip aerial points, the front towing pintle, rear bumperettes, NATO hitch, pioneer tools, screw lenses for easy bulb changes - etc etc. We think it looks great - the recent canvas and Michelin 4x4 tyres complete the look. If you've been looking for an ex-military 90 for any period of time, you will be able to see the complete nature of this one.
The interior carries on the military theme with the twin outer deluxe seats, central convoy switch for the headlamps with working map light, central water carrier/ jerry can and deluxe matting in the footwells. The rear is unfitted except for a load mat, making it ideal for lugging items or rear bench seats could be fitted to bring seating for six including the driver for £595. The original radio racking is also still in place behind the driver and passenger seats- handy for both safety in a roll over for strength and if you are looking to bolt tools or items to it... we've even seen business bolt coffee machines to these, or gardening businesses making these a "one stop" tool roll!
Out on the road is where this 90 really, really shines through though - it drives like a much more modern variant than its years with five speed gearbox, disc brakes, power steering, coil springs... and coupling that super low mileage, it is as close to new as one of these 38 year olds can really get. With the added bonus of this 90 being before the days of OBD plug ins - it is all mechanical and can be fixed using a basic tool kit rather than needing a scanner. When one considers all of that and THEN compares it to the currently MOT exempt Land Rovers® that are available - leaf sprung with four speed gearboxes and heavy steering and drum brakes - this really is a car that could be used every day that in two years won't need road tax or any MOT.. simply amazing.
In summary - we think our discerning customer base will see exactly why this car is a great choice - and we don't envisage it'll be in stock for long for those reasons.
