Thread: Series 3 on it's way to the Eastern Suburbs ( Railway )

I wonder where it is now.

Earliest days of LPG conversions, with roof-mounted LPG tanks. What could possibly go wrong?

Might answer Ian's question...

D2dave and I were discussing that very issue, yesterday.

Its a Series 3 i would think,not actually a Deefer?

just to broaden my mind, what engines were available in the S111......and what engines were originally available in the defender?

Probably gunna start a fight over whether the County is a Defender. Seems to be a bit of ambiguity there, at least in the parts books. Then there's the Stage One....

Series 3 was available in Australia with a 2.25 petrol or diesel 4, early production 2.6 petrol 6, and later 3.5 petrol V8 or 3.9 Isuzu diesel 4. (The V8 effectively replaced the six.)

Defender was originally only available with the 2.5 Tdi 200 diesel. Between Series 3 and Defender was the Landrover 110, similar to the Defender. In Australia it was only sold with the same V8 or Isuzu diesel used in the late S3.

Note that the 2.5 petrol and diesel engines developed from the 2.25, and the turbo 2.5 were never sold in Australia. Nor was the Landrover 90 nor the Defender 90 until about 2000.
