Help finding series 3 - KRR 617K

[F355spider]

Hi all, im trying to help my brother in search of his first love, can anyone help please

Regards Rob

See below:

I am desperately trying to find my old Series III landrover, she was Biarritz Blue with white roof and yellow chassis and hubs, black landrover grill with 4 spot lights on the roof and bucket seats. I sold her in 1999 and believe she is around the Milton Keynes/Bucks area, according to the DVLA she is taxed so is still out there somewhere. Her reg is KRR 617K.


Please if you own her or know of her whereabouts please message me.

Thank you

Will

Might just be your lucky day!! Spotted on ebay and for sale round the corner from me in Studley, Warwickshire. My girlfriend pointed out this Land Rover for sale the other day locally. Glanced at the ad but not for me as got Softdash Rangie and like my creature comforts!! Recognised the registration number in your post and was sure it was same one!! No good at doing links - sorry! Item number - 271313276590 on ebay. Good luck!!

Thank you so much, i love Pistonheads !!

Just rung my brother he has really been down in the dumps over the las couple of months .. It was nice to hear him cheerful.

Much apprciated, she looks a bit sorry for herself since he sold her

And he IS going to buy it back, right? It's what PHers do!

[F355spider]

Ive offered to lend him the money, seller has an optimistic valuation on though. We will find out later today i guess !

[CAPP0]

Good luck!

At a wild guess that might make £1500 on a good day although it clearly needs work, general tattiness notwithstanding (and I speak from no ivory tower but from owning, and having previously had, tatty Landies!). Add on the sentimentality premium and hopefully he's in with a shout!

[F355spider]

Cheers .... If he does win, it will be the second time he has done it up. He spent shed loads on it when he first owned it - it was a barn find! Talk about full circle..
