Used Car of the Day: 1986 Land Rover 110

by Tim Healey

Published: August 21st, 2023

Today, we give you a beast to gawk at. This 1986 Land Rover 110 is right-hand drive, has been converted to run a 200tdi engine, has just 27,500 kilometers on the clock, and has a manual transmission.

The rig was imported about a decade ago and had its fluids replaced in 2018 -- they've been maintained since, we're told.

There is some surface corrosion.

There's a list of new or replaced items, including a new turbocharger and intercooler and a new timing belt. The clutch and brakes have been replaced and the cylinder head has been machined.

The Ohio-based seller asks $30,000 for this safari-ready rig. Give it a look see here.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Aaron Recently cross shopped both cars. Decided to go with the civic sport. Like the non direct injection 2.0 engine (no long term carbon buildup) and preferred the Hondas transmission over the Toyotas. The civic interior seems much nicer and roomier. Also Honda had many more civics available to choose from vs Toyota. Got almost 2k off sticker. Felt it was the better deal overall. Toyota was not budging on price.
FreedMike Not my favorite car design, but that blue color is outstanding.
Lorenzo Car racing is dying, and with it my interest. Midget/micro racing was my last interest in car racing, and now sanctioning body bureaucrats are killing it off too. The more organized it is, the less interesting it becomes.
Lorenzo Soon, the rental car lots will be filled with Kia's as far as the eye can see!
Lorenzo You can't sell an old man's car to a young man, but you CAN sell a young man's car to an old man (pardon the sexism, it's not my quote).Solution: Young man styling, but old man amenities, hidden if necessary, like easier entry/exit (young men gradually turn into old men, and will appreciate them).
