What is a 12 seat wagon? I only arrive at 10 seats in a 109 Safari Wagon or 11 in a 109 Hard Top.

OK, then what's a ten seat wagon? By your logic a 109 hard top seats 15.

By the time our vehicles had arrived, BL had dropped most of the fantasy seating capacities they had applied to previous LR models.

Thus 3 front, 3 middle, and four inward facing (whether this be individual or bench seat).

Done :)

Also, can I suggest the link is put into a sticky and that this is added to the other General Discussion forum, the one about the Register, too. Just so that owners can add their details.

12 seats as mentioned 3, 3, 3 and 3.

10 seats 3 up front, the nxt row actually sits a little further back to increase leg space then 2 and 2 in the rear - factory option as offered on the sales materials.

No a 109 hard top is 11
3 up front, 4 each side in the back
...its not my logic, it what #landrover sold them as, and untill a few years ago (when the puma came out) the 110 SW was still the same - though i think the 10 seat option was dropped, and don know about the utility

OK, back to my previous point that the register as it stands is intended (or unintentionally biased) for UK production only.

As any market with compulsory belts is 3, 10 or 11 seat.

I'll add more information over the next few days, thanks for the additional requirements.

Useful comments are valid - grumbling and no thanks is not...

Online forms - always a balance of too much info v keeping interest.

ill add mine once i have the info (or can it be updated afterwards?)...but nearly all of those box's I cant fill atm
Might be an idea to have registration date, rather than build, as no one will know the build date unless they've been to LR archives to get it

i think your asking for to much there, which might put people off...just my personal opinion though

It's now approaching a point where you would be able to start collating reasonable data. Prior to that you would have got little that was substantive.

Registration date (Plate Letter) is virtually a UK only curio. Many countries don't have log books and BMH won't issue certificates for OS production.

If anything, a few more boxes are needed. As civvy spec colour production is limited to only a few. Arctic White is the major roof colour and Sahara Dust was a major colour in Australia. There probably are two shades of military green and whether the vehicle is 12 or 24 volt, plus other points.

Tick and flick options limit owner input errors. As an example I went to look at a V8 engine (to buy) in a 110 on Sunday. The owner has a rot free, tidy, Disco 1 to chop up and donate its diesel 5 speed power unit to his 110. The owner further went on to state;

- Every diesel 110 anywhere in the world was Isuzu powered.
- No one in (commercial business) the UK would tell him everything he needed to know to do the job (for free).
- His parts book didn't tell him anything to the contrary, or useful in doing the job.
- By continually stating he owns a County (and nothing else) everyone would know precisely what Land-Rover he had,
- That his mate who was a mechanic had a mate who would approve the modification, without any prior consultation.....


Unless you control the possibility of owner input errors, you don't end up with useable data.
