Hi!
This a trade sale from my company, Hutchinson 4x4, A donation will be made to Martin if a forum member or a friend of buys this on here. It is a 1997 300tdi 90 truck cab with a Ifor williams canopy, its done 120k odd miles and it is 3 owners from new 
Fully HPI clear with report available to view. It was rebuilt in 2012 by a friend of mine and he sold it to a farmer who owned it until now and ive purchased it. I have a full folder of all the photos of the rebuild 
It's had a rebuilt transfer box with a 1.2 ratio for more relaxed cruising installed along with a pump tweak on the engine so it goes well!
The interior is basic but clean and tidy, the seats are all good no rips, has a cubby box and matting to the seatbox and the gearbox tunnel, Its still a decent defender but it has some niggles to note which ill list:- Bulkhead top corner needs a repair along with couple spots just below the bonnet gutter, If I were to buy or keep this, I would invest in a galvanised replacement to go with the chassis! It can be repaired for around £500 though. Slight oil weep from somewhere on the engine, needs a seal (Ive not looked yet but will confirm it)  Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge 2011 Santorini Black USW XS. 2015 Discovery 4.5 Black pack Firenze red XS Last edited by Welshsurferdude on 19th Jan 2024 11:00pm.

Took some new photos after cleaning the cab out yesterday in-between the heavy rain!
I also took it for a run on the road, its got good power, temp gauge is rock solid, gearbox is fine as is clutch is good. Brakes pull to 1 side so that will need looking at before MOT.
