This is a hard to find Range Rover Classic in that driving condition and shape, it had one owner until I bought it a few month ago.
It is a California truck where it spent all of its life.
You can have it checked by a third party if you want so you know what you are buying and that the vehicule is just like it says in the add.
Absolutely rust free vehicule.
The inside looks really good with just normal wear, the driver leather seatis not cracked like most you see on ebay, passenger and rear seatslook almost like new.
Carpet throughout is excellent with minor wear.
No rust on tailgate which is unusual for the Classics.
It was service by the dealers all through its life and I have most of the repairs receipts so very easy to trace and check.
I have also the owner’s manual leather book with all info inside, rare!!
When I bought this RR it had 146250,000 miles on it, he went to the dealer for maintenance and it shows, this one was not abuse and since it was meant to be my daily driver I change all the worn parts and even did some upgrade for prevention.
Everything works like it should except the sunroof.
Headliner is like new so it was probably redone at some point.
This one has 4 new BILSTEIN SHOCKS, best on the market for the Range Rover which translates in a very comfortable ride, firm just as it should be, and actually with the center shock design it handles better than my P38 when taking curve, very safe handling with no play.
This RR Classic features the following:
The paint looks almost brand new.
Catalytic converter changed
Cruise control works
Power mirrors
A/C
Power windows
Power steering
Running board
Bull bar
Rear light protection grill
Rear folding seat
Radio/cassette
Spare tire with all original tools
Wood trim, genuine feature from Range Rover
Brakes 80% left.
New steering drop arm ball joint.
90% new bridgestone tires, very smooth drive and super handling with these tires.
Exhaust was changed last year so looks like new.
Start right up since all spark plugs and wire are almost new.
Just passed smog.
The engine does not burn any oil.
The transmission is smooth and shift like a new one.
It doesn't only look like a tank it is also built like one. If you have any knowledge of the RR CLASSICS, you know these trucks are overbuilt and if taken care of properly (like it was) will run for a very long time.
This is a workhorse.
Oil was change every 8 K miles with mobil syntheticand the transmission every 30K miles.
All fluids changed with synthetic oil, we did engine/transmission/front axle/rear axle/ transfert case.
Brake fluid flushed.
Power steering fluid flushed.
Wheel alignment after changing the steering drop arm.
All radiator hoses and clamp and thermostat have been replaced.
Radiator checked for any leak.
Mechanically it needs nothing.
This Range Rover runs and drive like day one. If you are looking for a trouble free Range Rover this is the one. If it ever needed anything, it was at the dealer and taken care of.
The inside is in a very good condition for such an old vehicule with only a few worn spots here and here. They age very well because they were well made it's that simple.
Everything work like it should except the sunroof.
The price new in today $ would be $112,000 for this model.
These RR classic are going up in value by the day so you will always get your money back if you ever need to part with it for any reason.
It has a few nicks and dings here and there but very hard to notice unless you put your nose on it.
Keep in mind it is a 24 year old car, if you want a show room or concours d'elegance first price winner this is not your vehicule (if you want a new one bring $120,000 and go to the dealer) but if you want the most reliable RANGE ROVER classic out there and good looking with nothing to fix here it is, don't look no further, you will never find one in that mechanical condition and in that esthetical shape.
I drove it to Los Angeles again last week and it cruise like a new car.
Of course you could buy one for less than $10,000 but you will have to spend a lot of money to get it running trouble free like mine and look like mine.
Look at the ones that sold for $30,000 and they are back on ebay because they only looked like new
I just bought a P38 special edition HOLLAND and HOLLAND (a rare P38 indeed) otherwise I would never part with it, but I can't drive both at the same time so here it is for sale. I have the title on my name so no problem.
