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.

Neville's wife Marlene and Jack Russel Terrier "Bobbie"
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
