Neville Tapp's 1984 109 V8 Series Land
Rover
(location: New Zealand)
The
Land Rover was originally owned by the NZ Justice Department.
She's been around the clock a couple of times, but is
still going strong.
Since
purchasing her, Neville has had to complete the
following maintenance:
- Machine
the heads and replace the head gaskets
- Replace
the water pump
- Replace
the radiator
- Refurbish
the LPG unit
- Replace
all the leaf springs
- Rebuild
the gearbox
Other than that, she has been a good reliable
vehicle

Camping out at Cape Karikari, Far North |
Neville and his wife only really use the
Land Rover for beach access then fishing, and for camping.
To provide the creature comforts while they are away,
he has fitted a 12/24 volt fridge, gas hot water system,
and a double bed that can be removed or installed in under
3 minutes.

Visit Neville's
website for information on:
- a comparison of Absorption
refrigeration and Compressor refrigeration.
- carpeting the roof
- fitting rock sliders
- fitting flexi flares
Neville's website is also worth
a visit to learn about his SWB Series III, his
Range Rover, and lots of useful info about various
off road equipment.

Thanks Neville
