You mean your Land Rover actually retained all its fluids ? 
Yes mate they can, just like jags can you just have to know how to do it, I got my first Jag when I was 18 still have it, so had it for 31 years, I still build a few Jag engines for guys ,doing 2 right now, I love the old 50-60s Jags they are great things the engines are work of art for their day, twin cam, Hemi , multi carbs, 4 wheel disc brakes, independent rear suspension over engineered with needle rollers for suspension pivots not rubber. dont get me started on a V12 XJS, one of the best road cars ever made, you can run them at 250kph all day if you want. Below are some pics of the 65 3.8 S type from the late 80's early 90's when I modified it with an E type head and carbs, High compression forged pistons, custom made cams which I got from one of the original Australian cam grinders, Ivan Tighe, who welded each lobe of each cam then ground them, Tighe's and Wade are the original Australian Hot cams, I guess like Isky in the US. I had to modify the engine bay to fit the carbs in, cast up a new pedal box to move the master cylinders back to clear the back carb, lots of work, 3.54 rear with a 4 speed box and Laycock over drive. I love em. This car has been featured in Unique cars magazine, and a couple of Jag specific magazines over the years.
