Hi and welcome from the top corner of Lincolnshire. There will be an answer to any questions from within the forum.
We have similar interests having spent lots of years sorting Landrovers in the army from Series 2 /2A and Series 3. Also a 90 into a 200 TDI and a 200TDI Discovery.

From my recollections of the guards it would have been well looked after and polished within an inch of its life.It’s interesting you have have found it’s history. 
I know it will be after the end of the season when you pick up you’re Trooper but you should be able to get away before the winter really sets in. Saying that we are away irrelevant of season or weather. Enjoy you’re travels.

Hello Peter, welcome to the forum!

I also run a SIII, 2.25d. Well, technically it’s called a 2.3, as it’s the later 5brg engine.
