My Td5 110 commercial
Here's a few photos of my 110, bought in an ex- utility auction. It's being kept reasonably standard. Jobs done / bits added so far

Blind spot rear windows
New rear door
New seats out of a BMW, heated and electric
Cruise control
Electric windows - DIY job using disco motors
Central locking using a cheap eBay kit

It was very well looked after, well serviced etc, the electricity company seem to look after things well and then send their defenders to be auctioned off when something mechanical breaks - it my case the front diff was gone - handy swap.

Not the greatest of photos - but unbelievably comfortable - and warm, they are a little bit higher than standard which I like - still plenty of room, I'm 6ft. The side of the bases aren't overly high either so not difficult to climb in and out of

The wiring was a bit of a headache - the driver's side is ECU controlled - I had to wire in a 5v feed to keep ECU awake otherwise seat motor controls would turn off after 10 minutes of ignition power

Do you have the bmw model number they came from?

I like these trucks, ex utilities always have little quirks

I think they're out of a BMW E90

There's good value in ex utility 110s, tend to be very basic models but everything can be added, oddly my came with TC / ABS

They look great, and dirt cheap online compared to Landy leather seats!

Gave about 50 quid for them, and another 50 for the proper dash switches and bits to make up a loom
