1971-85 Series III for sure (plastic grille and flat door hinges). So it can't be a Tangi, according to Wikipedia:
Quote The first Tangi (registration HXI 3593, fleet number 8203) went into action on 16 January 1986 [...]


88"/2.23 m wheelbase or 109"/2.77 m one, that is the question. It sounds small for a 109" model...

Agree 88" with mock-up armoured bits.

@dsl:
Unlike IMCDb habits, you set it as Series III 88'' (and this one as Series III 109'') instead of 88'' Series III. I find it more logical to have the Series identification before the wheelbase length, so I agree with that way of doing. Do you thing we should do the same for all other Series?

Ooops - wasn't a deliberate attempt to overthrow the system, so I'll switch them. As for your bigger question, when I was a newbie, I'd have probably agreed with you but now I just chug along with everybody else. I don't have a strong opinion and while I do some Land Rover entries/updates as they come up, I'm not a big gun. If you want a Big Change like that, I guess it depends on how easy it is for Sir Admin to exercise his magic powers ...
