The charm
The two-door Range Rover Classic is in a class of its own. The first luxury 4x4, it embodies a true heritage of tough vehicles, capable of going anywhere and doing anything. These early examples are increasingly sought after for their rugged elegance and their characterful V8. This 1982 example, finished in Tuscan Blue with beige velour upholstery, cuts an elegant figure, in a colour that showcases its typical 1980s lines perfectly.
This 4x4 has had significant investment in recent years, including bodywork restoration, mechanical refurbishment and interior renovation, all carried out since 2021. The seller describes the vehicle as generally in good condition, but notes that a general service is recommended before regular road use.

BEFORE YOU BUY
This sale is subject to the Car & Classic terms and conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following:
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means consumer rights under European consumer protection legislation do not apply. However, you remain covered by the Car & Classic terms and conditions.
✓ We require a non-refundable fee to be paid if you are the successful bidder or your offer is accepted. Please refer to our FAQs and terms and conditions for the specific rates.
✓ This vehicle is "sold as is", on an "as is, where is" basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are provided for guidance only, and it is standard practice to carry out a thorough inspection of the vehicle before purchase for your own peace of mind.
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's security deposit. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing.
✓ We want the transaction to go smoothly, just as you do, which is why cars and motorcycles registered in the UK and listed on Car & Classic are subject to an HPI check to confirm they carry no insurance database markers for damage or theft and are not subject to any financial encumbrance, so you can bid with confidence.
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as written off following a total loss at the time the listing is placed on Car & Classic, and we provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) to help you. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle's status, so it is always worthwhile to carry out a full vehicle history check before making an offer.
✓ Buyers are responsible for collecting or arranging delivery of the vehicle. Importing vehicles may incur additional customs duties and import taxes. If you wish, we can recommend a third-party transport company to help. For more details or to speak with the team, email auctions@carandclassic.com.
