Towing my landrover.

hellhawk · 02-11-2009, 14:34

Bought a 1972 landrover to play with, this is how i got it home.
Terrano was faultless in towing.

Just thought i would share the event.

GREAT PICS..

why did you expect troubles from you T2.. they are a great tugger

how far did you tow the 110 then??

Lucky you didnt get stopped that looks like a 3 1/2 tonne trailer max towing weight on terrano is 2800 kg or 3000 kg for the 3 litre

HI ZIPS, thats not a 110! it's 1972 and should be a 109 series 3,but as there's no air intake on the n/s wing it may be a 2A

making miss my old Series 2a now

I towed it across Kendal about 3 miles through town.

It is a series 3 109 the reason there is no intake on this side is because its left hand drive ex MOD Singapore driven all the way back via Africa where it spent time. The engine is a 1964 from a series 2a (petrol) the thing only weighs in at 1702kg.

And it's going to need a lot of work but chassis and bulkhead are ok all doors are knackered.
It does run and drive but there are no electrics as all the looms removed (burn out).

Hope its as reliable (when finished) as the terrano but i don't think it will ever go offroad again.

It's just a toy as i like to hear my radio and have comfortable seats.
