Rare ex-Australian Army Land Rover 110, roject code name "Perentie". I brought this over with me when I moved back and now its time to sell...
Comparable to a Land Rover Defender 110 but with the following extras as ordered standard by the Oz army:- Isuzu 3.9L, -cyl diesel (an extremely capable and universal engine; easy to maintain)- LT95A 4-speed transmission (upgraded over the LT85)- Full-time 4WD with a central diff locker- Salisbury / GKN rear axle- Long travel, oil spring suspension on front and rear axles. Fully floating rear axle- Hot galvanized frame- Front bull bars and rear winch points- Jerry can holders (includes 2x Jerry cans) and two rear tool pockets- A full set of the original bonnet "gardening" tools included, ut not shown in the pictures (an axe, pick axe and a shovel)- 12V electrical- Blackout kit- Sweet ass camo paint job- Original service record from its time in the service, nd all servicing after it was decommissioned- Full light, edium and heavy repair manuals / parts lists from the Army
A few upgrades since leaving the service:- LR Power steering (Mar 2015)- New tires (Sep 2014)- New brake master cylinder (Jan 2015)- Bilstein shocks (Jul 2011) and King springs (2" lift; Mar 2015)- Fitted with a standard tow ball- An additional 1" lift (Mar 2015)
As was described to me by the LR Australia Defense contact: these trucks were maintained without regard to cost. This specific vehicle was part of a reserve unit so its had an especially easy life. I havent had any issues with it; the only bothers are the few rattles from age. I've been 4WDing twice and it handled sand and the trail better than most trucks with over $30k of mods. Surprisingly fuel efficient (22-24mpg around town). I'm an engineer who uses this truck as my daily driver so its been maintained scrupulously and driven responsibly
PLEASE NOTE:- The truck is currently in the US / Memphis with TN registration and titling. The VIN isSALLDHAZ1FF381466- It is right hand drive
