Description

Over $80k invested in this Rover, including >$50k spent with Congleton Service in Vermont (the premier Range Rover restoration shop). This is a 1995 Range Rover Classic 25th Anniversary edition, of which 250 were sold, all in Aspen Silver with Black interior. Mine also has what is probably the only TWR kit for a LWB Range Rover in the US, and also has the relatively rare Range Rover factory roof rack. Clean title. No rust.

Highlights of the work performed by Taylor Congleton (<10k miles since work was done):

- New 5.0L high performance engine (based on a Rover V8); usable power throughout the range and noticeably quicker than stock

- Revised ECU tuned to go with new engine

- Customized Congleton Racing aluminum radiator (hugely beefy), oil cooler, and transmission cooler

- New engine mounts

- New ZF transmission

- Remanufactured transfer box

- Installed Roverville remanufactured radio

- Overhaul EAS (air suspension) system, with new airbags and components

- Overhaul steering / suspension bushings

- Oil pump

- NRP stainless steel exhaust

- Waxoyl and hardwax applied to underbody

- New heated windshield

- New headliner

- New Trucklite 27270 LED headlights (huge upgrade in performance at night)

- Dynamat in key areas to reduce sound/heat, including bulkhead and drivetrain tunnel and doors

- Various hoses/parts replaced with new as well

- Some cosmetic things, such as front grille and other trim

Other work that I can remember (I have full service records from my ownership):

- Regular oil changes every 3,000 miles or 6 months

- All regular maintenance / fluids

- Tires have 10k miles (Michelin LTX MS2, so they'll last forever)

- Wheels were re-powdercoated in the silver finish

- All wood refinished by Madera Concepts

- Probably a lot more

- Battery plug for a CTEC battery tender installed

- Recently repainted front and rear bumper to get rid of rock chips

Considerations / issues:

- Cruise control and heated seats do not work

- Window adjustments do not work, but seat adjustments work
