Hi, is yours the dark green one converted to diesel by Dunsfold in the 90s? Obviously from the factory they were all 2.6 petrols but not ideal for private use due to the thirst. Any idea what happened to it?

@@onetonlandrover I bought it from a yard in Aston and it had been round the block so who knows what it started out as. Reg was PRB 248E. Blue Panels. White hard top with a blue door. Sold on for £1200 and bought a fully restored K reg Series 3 2.25 diesel station wagon for £2000 Hard to believe now. The 101 keeps me busy though. Cheers

@@willtricks9432 E plate would be too early for a 1 Ton, blue and white - possibly ex-EMEB and I think they did run diesels.

@@willtricks9432 Those prices wouldn't get you a resto project these days would they? Crazy how prices have gone in recent years.

@@onetonlandrover I live up hill from the local scrappy and have rolled down and weighed in cars that today would get a good price. Cheers

I love a bit of classical 👌

Bought online or via friends over the years. They are 9.00x16.

Yes

@@onetonlandrover i have a question, originals 1 Ton was only made in 109 pickup or 109 hardtop bodies, right?? Not on SW or 88 wheelbase bodies, right?? 😁

@@alfredodini5315 That's correct.

@@onetonlandrover Thanks

How do I see the deference between a 1 ton and non 1 ton? Or how do I see if I have a 1 ton? Thanks Casper

As 307th

Been a while since this video but I think we were mainly down south on Salisbury plain not near any particular village. If your looking for an easy route with nice views you could try Market Lavington to Upavon on the Salisbury plain Northern Transit Route.

Both are on 900x16s.

@@onetonlandrover , is there any modification done to install a 900x16s tires? Tyvm.

@@dennissalumbides-9064 They can fit a standard vehicle, but you will find the tyres will rub the bodywork. You need to make quite extensive modification to the chassis suspension mounts, as well as fit longer swing arms. The steering will also be *very* heavy without the special steering box. Gearing will also be quite tall, especially on a working vehicle. The 1 Ton of course had all this from the factory. Considering the scarcity and expense of 900x16 tyres I really wouldn't bother, as the disadvantages very much outweigh any advantages.

@@onetonlandrover thank you so much for the information.👍

Thankfully it wasn't *too* muddy, just enough to keep it interesting without causing damage. I don't think I'd want to try it in winter.

@@onetonlandrover I'm not going hardcore offroad with ours when it's ready. So that little pit looks perfect. 😉

@@slowshop Come over for a spin sometime 👍

@@onetonlandrover When our series 1 hybrid is ready and the world is back to normal we are planning to drive Sweden-UK. I've been over a few times but never by car.

@@slowshop Sounds like a great trip!

Not a good memory for you then?

You do understand it's a timelapse, right?

Depends on your meaning of fast, l have been in a few Series Land Rovers that were quite quick, mostly V8 or V6 but one had a 2.8 litre version of the 2.25 petrol.

You spelled fantastic wrong 🤣😜
