greenstream Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Hi I've got a friend who have purchased what is supposed to be a 127". But when looking at the vin it states that its a 110" Where 110" chassis used when making 127" or is it budge ? Regards Morten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzar Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 They were built on an extended110 chassis at first, I think Foley did the work. What year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arjan Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Many are build on a 110 chassis at the production line and, in thiose days, rolled to SV to be cut and extended. LR rarely bothered to change the VIN details Many V5 docs say they're 110. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenstream Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share Posted May 5, 2020 Thanks guys. This car is now in Denmark and the worry is to wether the mot-guy will accept it as an 127". Do you know if its somehow possible to verify this, maybe via the seriesnumber in the vin ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 As above, Land Rover chopped and extended the 127" chassis, from memory until the early 90s when they gained their own 'proper' chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 As others say, they started life as 110 HCPU / HD rolling chassis and Land Rover Special Vehicles chopped them & extended them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
