This armoured Landrover survived tours of duty in Bosnia, but has it survived its time spent abandoned in a Peak District farm yard, will it start???

My goodness army snatch landy.. Ive been in the back of many of them. We had a saying in Iraq, nobody likes a dirty snatch. So keep it clean. Great to see one again. It definitely deserves to live again..
Good to see you back buddy hope you are ok👍
The Radio wagons were 24volt (FFR) fitted for radio, yours bever had a radio
buy some radio mikes they cheap to buy
i cant believe anyone would just abandon that landrover ,seems too good to be true tbh
Whats happening with the sound?
Do it up. Nothing like a good landy for the winter
Mmmmm can't be a bit of Snatch 😂
In the late 1990s I put a Rover V8 in an old farmyard Series 3 Land Rover. Happy times….
Welcome back Matt. Nice to see you back.
Cant have been stood too long as they drain down the oil pump prime. You either got lucky or you ran it dry for a few minutes until it reprimed itself. You should have taken out the dizzy and drove the oil pump with a drill and adapter for a minute or two after resistance is achieved to get the rockers wet.
One of these would be great for the daily commute ! Sounds really good – wish my Disco 2 sounded this throaty.
Good to see you back!
kind of hard to watch. A lapel mic with a windsock on it ————-is 40.00 online. This is pretty bad
I've have one. Owned it 7 years.
SOUND !!! Can't hear bugger all
Be good to see you fix it on the channel
Too much talking and calls things by childish names. Not worth watching
On the easy start, i watched a Daf 4 ton get addicted to it and then eventually croke it. Its definitely not good for any engine.
mat the person who makes joe hewes look like a tv professional. great vid as always.
Mmmmm, I am currently building up a 5L Rover V8 stroker motor with Ian Richardson Wildcat cylinder heads to go in a TVR, but it would fit in that engine bay very nicely…
Hey….is it cheap not lot cash. I love it
He lives
Was it just me or is chassis plate been broke in half under bonnet i be interested in it
Ngl those noccos are shit, better off just getting a 12/24v propulstation, kicks out about 1200 cca. They don't time out so can use it as a alginator if needs be and once the vehicle is running it'll steal some pixies from the causality vehicle and charge itself
Over half a tank of juice, that doubles the price?
That’s quite unusual, as the time that it went to NP Aerospace, Foleshill Rd, I think, in Coventry, they, along with Otokar, Turkey, were in full swing converting, as in completely rebuilding them into SNATCH 2’s, with 300tdi’s, new chassis, the lot. Some V8’s as SNATCH 1.5, where air con was fitted, behind the grilles on the side, behind the seats, were deployed to Iraq, Op Telic. All sandy coloured! That paint was supposed to be able to be pressure washed off.
Welcome back Mat .. good to get a feature length episode of your innuendo 😂
I drove one of them in Iraq back in 92, 93 but the fitted out comms unit version fucking loved the pile of shit we got hit with a rpg and she saved us , and she was fixed and back in service within days , bone shakers for definite but love them with a passion and they still look as cool as the first day seeing one on base.
With the 90 hp 3.9 litre engine….? I had one in Banja Luka…
