110 6x6 Dual cab Perentie..

[iClick]

I just noticed this listing online: 1987 Land Rover 110 Perentie
Interesting vehicle, I've not seen a dual cab 6x6 before. I may have been interested in this a while ago. Personally, I reckon it's way over priced.

Too noisy, heavy steering, no aircon, slow.. but still there is an appeal for a family overland tourer

The vehicle was originally a civy Perentie, current owner fitted the dual cab himself. I saw the vehicle a couple of years ago at Goondiwindi en route from WA to Northern QLD. As you said,a very impressive vehicle.

Cheers, Mick.

Considering the gear and km on it, I think it's bloody good value..

Not knowing much about Perenties, are they not all wider then? Thought they all had an extra 5 or 6 inches in the cab.. Are leaf springs std at the rear too? Cheers.

That's been for sale for a while now.

You could just about put the Rangie on the back for when it runs out of fuel hey Will?

The civilian 110 6x6 was standard width, and is not by any stretch correctly described as a Perentie, although it shares the same rear chassis, suspension and drive, and is an offshoot of the military contract. All of the Australian 6x6 Landrovers were leaf spring at the rear. They are quite rare - there were not all that many built, and most were sold to mining companies and driven into the ground and scrapped in a relatively short time. The only variants ex factory were the trayback and cab/chassis.

I would like to know more about the towing capacity of the later models, they show a GVM of 5.600 but no GCM.

I think this one was a civvy body put on a Perentie chassis.
