Thread: Army vehicle disposal

Both of those compliance plates make mention of it as a 110!

On the compliance plate, the vehicle "Model" is simply named as "Land Rover Military 4x4" or "Land Rover Military 6x6".

Quite a collection gathering at "departure lounge " , hopefully not all to head south for auction, a couple of dozen RFSVs plus GS, No. 5 trailers, Mogs etc.
Will be interesting to see what happens

I don't think they are compliance plates are they ? I thought they were nomenclature plates....


Although the nomenclature plate is fitted by manufacturer, it is done (I think) so as part of the Defence codification process for new equipment. The compliance plate (the normal bare metal one that mentions ADRs etc) is what manufacture uses to state it's name for the model. It is located in the engine bay on the firewall.

You are both right. Mr 303 didn't mis-identify the Nom plates. they were a different subject in his response. Compliance plate states: Land Rover, Military etc
Nom plate states: Truck Utility/ FFR/ Surveillance Light/weight etc and a handful have 'Perentie' on there as shown.

Just talking about the pictures.... They aren't compliance plates.

And here's some pics of Compliance Plates for you. From early to late, the style and content of the plates varied over time, but the Model was always "Land Rover Military 4x4" or "Land Rover Military 6x6", never described as a OneTen, Defender or Perentie.

And the 6x6 is also described as a 110, so they can't be describing the measurement of the wheelbase. They are talking about the model marketed before the Defender was introduced.

110" to the first axle I thought.
