The seller offers for sale this 1977 Land Rover Series III 109 Station Wagon, powered by a 2.6-litre six-cylinder petrol engine, paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Presented in white over a hard-wearing original interior, this long-wheelbase Station Wagon is offered in its correct, period-appropriate specification. The vehicle was first registered in 1977 as a government fleet vehicle and passed into private ownership in 2015, after which it was comprehensively restored. The interior has been kept completely original and reflects how Land Rover delivered the model when new. The exterior was refinished in period-correct paint in the original body colour, returning the car to the appearance it had when first delivered.
This particular example has benefited from extensive mechanical work. The engine was completely dismantled and rebuilt, the gearbox was fully overhauled in December 2025, and the carburettor was rebuilt. The car has been fitted with new Michelin tyres, a new ignition system and new brakes, while fluids have been serviced regularly. The chassis has been fully sealed and presents in good condition. A valuation report is available. The vehicle is currently registered and is regularly driven, and can be viewed and test driven by appointment.
The Land Rover Series III, introduced in 1971, was the most refined and longest-running iteration of the original Land Rover line, instantly recognisable by its plastic grille and all-synchromesh gearbox. The long-wheelbase 109 Station Wagon was the most versatile body style in the range, offering seating for the whole family alongside genuine off-road ability. The six-cylinder petrol engine is a far less common choice than the familiar four-cylinder units, prized for its smooth and torquey delivery that suits everything from mountain passes to motorways and country lanes. As one of the defining utilitarian vehicles of the twentieth century, the Series III enjoys a devoted following among collectors and enthusiasts, and a long-wheelbase six-cylinder Station Wagon in original specification is a particularly sought-after configuration.
