For more pictures and information please visit www.carcaveusa.comA timeless design and beautiful color combination. The Series IIA shown here is absolutely stunning and drives even better than it looks. Andrew Golseth at Petrolicious said it best, 'It's a shape recognized around the world. It's a mold so simple a 5-year-old with a Crayon could effortlessly recreate it on paper. Yet, its simplicity is a reflection of the fundamental foundation it was built upon: functionality. It is pure. It is minimal. But above all else, it is purposeful. These traits make it attractive in a timeless manner. Not in the Pininfarina curvaceous form, but through honesty. The Land Rover Series is not trying to be more than what it is. In fact, it could be argued that no other vehicle's performance has ever been so accurately exercised in its aesthetics.'The 1971 shown here in Bronze Green with a Limestone Hardtop and tropical roof. Previous ownership kept it in a heated garage for an occasional country drive. Service records are available dating back several years. The 2.25L Petrol Engine runs superbly well and the manual transmission shifts smooth making this Landy a true pleasure to drive.
