• Introduced in 1948 and conceived as a simple, rugged and versatile utility vehicle, the Series I established the foundations of the Land Rover legend
• First registered in 1956, this late-production, pre 88" example has been restored at some point in its life and has clearly been cherished over the years
• A long-standing member of The Land Rover Series One Club and presenting particularly well today
• Finished in traditional Bronze Green with a new green vinyl interior, complemented by a fresh Sand canvas tilt and frame
• Introduced in 1956, the 1,997cc spread-bore four-cylinder proved to be considerably more reliable than the earlier siamese bore units
• It's scheduled to undergo mechanical maintenance at the end of September, with full details of the work to be added to the catalogue once completed
• Invoices detailing the work carried out will accompany the vehicle
• With its simple engineering, purposeful styling and unmistakable character, the 86" Series I remains perhaps the purest expression of the original Land Rover concept
