LAND ROVER SERIES 2A

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at Silverstone Festival 2025 on Sunday the 24th of August, The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN.
Built by Marshalls of Cambridge, the FV18068 was the RAF version of the standard military ambulance and was used for 'the rapid recovery of airfield incident casualties'
It was fitted with a large front crash bar and a 240 volt input socket, this also charged the battery for constant readiness
This example served at RAF Catterick for 20 years before joining the St John Ambulance Service and finally becoming privately owned in 1999
The history folder suggests a substantial rebuild commencing in December 2005 with chassis and panel repairs 
Most notably the engine is mentioned as being replaced even though the original had covered a mere 18,000 miles, the gearbox was rebuilt and the rear axle replaced with a later Salisbury unit
The vehicle offers lots of possibilities, a go anywhere Land Rover Camper, or a catering van when rough terrain is a factor, but realistically it is still correctly equipped as a military ambulance and would have an invitation every weekend in the summer at military vehicle gatherings, county shows, and even a bit of film work
