I've seen a few around, they're odd looking things. Wouldn't a 110 Station Wagon offer the same level of versatility with the added benefit of having the storage area enclosed?

Other than being able to say you own the same car that was in Skyfall, what would be someone's reason for opting for a 110 pick up?

Hey Babs,

I've seen (quite a few times) a very modified 2014 maybe even a 2015 Puma around Eastern Adelaide jacked up on 35" tyres, koni raid suspension and dual exhaust (?!?) in Coris Grey...never been able to speak to the owner but looks very mean!
The tray area in the back is very small though, and the rear cab section is smaller than a wagon too... to be expected though with the way it has a separate cab/ute section.
Not sure when they first came about, I thought about one too, but the 110 wagon is so much more useful...and from a ute perspective, the 130 is more useful I reckon.
I have seen a two others around SA between the Hills and the City, they really don't come up for sale very often at all from what I've seen.

On a similar note, I would love to turn my 90 into a truck cab ute...
now that's even less practical but toughr IMO!

Yes agree the 110 wagon is more practical that's why I have a new one.

I'm just fishing, curious about their history and would love one as a project vehicle.

With no offence to 130 owners but they look too long, more practical yes but aesthetically they don't look right IMO.

Don't know what your budget is, but this would make a good project mate

Land Rover Defender | Cars, Vans & Utes | Gumtree Australia Serpentine Area - Byford | 1093833442

I know of one.

Very versatile unit. I have a canopy for mine, so could "lock" things up if I had to. Don't have it on now, and hasn't been for a while, don't miss it at the moment, but no doubt will go back on.

I'm not so sure that the back seat section is bigger in a wagon than the ute though. Do the rear seats lay back at all in the wagon? If so, I guess you could call it bigger.
Its probably a tad lighter in the rear end than the wagon, so when the canopies on, or its full of fuel, she rides beautifully. The wagon we tested had a similar ride when we drove it, both a bit rough when dead empty.

And you just never know,,, anything's possible.

I agree, i think they look great. Was one for sale in a car yard on South Road in Adelaide last year but didnt last long. I did my best not to drop in and look at it and held out for the little time it was there.

Saw a 110 single cab with a steel tray in Berri in January. They wanted $26k and it disappeared a couple of days later. Is now with a dealer in Adelaide for $29k.

The funniest thing I've seen recently is a 110 single cab styleside ute, 5 years old with 140k kms for the bargain price of $65k... Some people are getting a bit carried away.
