1949 Land Rover Series I 80"
Registration no. PCM 579
Chassis no. R0612825
Odometer Reading: 102008
MoT: Exempt
*Early example
*Eye-catching RAF blue
*Recent engine tune-up
Built on 27 October 1949 and going straight to the Ministry of Supply, by 1963 this Land Rover was in Liverpool, its owner of three years selling it and buying it back a year later. It is reported by the vendor as running well and has had an engine tune-up along with the fitting of a new distributor and fuel pump. Occupant comfort has been improved with correct-for-age seat and seat backs.
Ideal for late-summer evening run-outs and benefiting from a recent tune-up and new seats there is much to commend this early Land Rover.
£10,000 - 14,000
Vendor Score Total: 63/100
