Do 110s have removable roof?

[motas]

Hey. So I'm obviously a noob and have no idea about range rovers. But do they have a removable roof? I have a Jeep right now and I like everything about it except how tiny it is. And I'm having a hard time finding something within my price range which is bigger, as (or close to as) capable and has a removable roof. I definitely like the look of the range rovers and afaik they re capable off road and alike to jeep in the toughness and simplicity.
Anyway any help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

Also incase 110 isn't clear enough because I have no idea how many variations of a 110 there are I'm talking about these:
1986 LAND ROVER 110 COUNTY SUV Private Cars For Sale in SA - carsales.com.au 1247 1252 1282 4294965541 4294960683 1216&silo=Stock&Range=Price:Min,Max~0.5&sort=defau lt
But if theres another similar thing with a removable top that's fine.
Thanks.

Technically you can't on later models, no problems up to about 1984 , later models have one piece doors & you can't take the too tops off, so sort of pointless removing the roof and folding the screen if you still have door tops.


But where theres a will there is a way.
If you find a 110 that still has windscreen hinges instead of the solid blanks they use now you can fit series 3 doors without tops and unbolt the roof no problemo.

So for clarification the top can be removed on them by unbolting it but on late models the windscreen will not fold down and obviously has full height doors. I'm yet to fold down the windscreen on the Jeep so not a big issue and what a lot of people do to jeeps is make half height doors out of tube and skin them with a thin sheet of alu or steel. I assume with a bit of fab work this would be possible?
Few more questions if you don't mind.
Can the hardtop be replaced with a soft top?
Biggest size tyre on the factory diffs (excluding regearing and aftermarket axles?
Anything wrong with these? Would you recommend them over a TJ Wrangler for mostly trail duties?
Thanks.

motas,
Have a browse around on this site. The types of Landrovers available are many and varied.
Almost anything can be made into a soft top. It's just a matter of how far you want to go.
Some even came from factory that way.

How does this one grab you?

On that model you will eventually break a front axle on 33s, but upgrade axles will let you run 35s or more. The suspension works really well, gearing brilliant, approach and departure angles brilliant...but the longer wheelbase can be both an advantage and disadvantage compared to a TJ.
You could go soft top with a bit of work, there's a blue dual cabbed 110 near me with a bikini style soft top.
You wouldn't need to make new doors. Get some series 3 doors, swap the door lock stuff over and bolt them on. The frames of my 85 model are virtually identical to series 3 doors with a bit welded on top.


Also Land Rover make Land Rovers and Range Rovers. Range Rover is just a model name

Thanks. I'm having a browse around now but the models are confusing the **** out of me. Basically what I want is a dual cab ute for under $10k with a removable roof which I prefer to be soft top.
Im running 2" lift with chopped fenders and 33s right now and it gets me a fair way but the ruts are a little too deep in some spots which is holding me up. The little pumpkin makes it about equal to a patrol on 35s though. And true on the wheelbase. The short wheelbase is awesome for some bits, only bellied out once and make tight turns in one go while lwb take a few goes to get round. But then you hit a steep uphill and it has a bit of pucker factor. I don't mind doing work I have plenty of time and some fabrication skill but moneys a killer at my age. Even better if I can get some bolt on doors.
Thanks for all the help.

Are you talking about Range Rovers or another model Land Rover?

This body shape Range Rover (1970-1994) has a removable roof but it's not something one would do often:

Sorry typo I meant land rover

motas,

the vehicle you linked to could have it's roof removed and the doors replaced or chopped/fabricate others. You would have to also remove part of the back of the cab unless you want a full height partition between cab and load space.

Once upon a time I'd say that those mods would have been done and no one would care a great deal, now days you would need some engineering to allow the rego to be changed to a soft top convertible from a hard roof vehicle (station wagon or dual cab)
