Offered here is a very early Land Rover: the 2,269th production vehicle, manufactured towards the end of 1948 and first registered in January 1949. This Land Rover has the 1,600cc engine and the original type of ring-pull gearbox. It also retains its original chassis and its original Essex registration number. 'OEV 908' has the three-seater hood, which is far less common that the full tilt provided with the majority of Series I Land Rovers. Professionally restored by Land Rover specialists Bush Engineering, the vehicle has hardly been used since the two-year restoration was completed in 2019 and is described by our vendor as in excellent condition throughout. Finished in light green with matching interior, 'OEV 908' is offered with a V5C registration document.
