Series Land Rovers
Here are some data about the threads used on Land Rovers. On Series vehicles you possibly won't find metric threads, but they have some other odd things (eg. the 4 bolts that hold the top cover of the steering relay). Coil sprung Land Rovers are a wild mixture of metric, UNF and UNC as far as I have seen on my 110.
I hope this helps anybody.
For the spanner sizes see Peter Hirsch's spanner size table

I've added the pitch in metric format, too, so one can easily see what nuts and bolts will be crossbreadable. Please note that this was Dixon Kenners idea (he even talked about ramming bolts down holes ;-) and that this is a real SPOT (stupid previous owners trick). But in an emergency it could probably get you home.
Some data I got from Mike Rooth :

(By the way,this *is* a metric thread,really wierd)
