There's a few green ones around if you look.

I had no problems with rego/insurance with either the Series or the 110
Just had to call it a landrover 3.9D wagon in both cases with the correct year

be interesting to see what the green ones go for however

Mine just said "Landrover 110 omnibus" When I laughed and questioned it, they said that they didn't have everything on the computer and getting old cars put on it was hard so they just put it in the closest one. She read me out some others that I could choose from if they were a better match.

I think it is one of those "computer says no" moments

Hell, in the ACT there isn't even a category for "coupe" - so my Alpina is registered as a Sedan.

landrover 110 omnibus--you need a LR lience to drive.
it can be 9 or 10 seat.

Landrover 110 station wagon you dont.but you must remove the rear side seats.

that was all about tax and rego price reduction in the 80's.
a bus was cheeper.

I had people told me they had trouble fitting a isuzu 4BD1 in a 3.9D 110 as the engine numbers are different--like using a nissan RB30 in a VL.

Interesting! Lucky I have an MR I wonder if anyone has been picked up as being "unlicensed" driving one..?

I guess you've all seen this, but I thought I'd post the link anyway.
