The Appeal
The Range Rover Classic's long life means enthusiasts revere certain stages in the model's evolution. This smart Caspian Blue five-door was built at one of them, just before the classic ‘hard dash’ made way for the less characterful ‘soft dash’ era. It is also a top specification Vogue SE and pairs that popular paint scheme with a very smartly preserved Westminster Grey cabin with a rare optional sunroof.
Then there is the secret beneath that clamshell bonnet - it may be badged 3.9L, but it was converted in period to 4.5L. This was a common switch and makes this low-mileage example considerably more potent. It presents extremely well, helped by recent fettling to the bodywork, including the roof and a rear window. Other work has included a fresh service and a replacement fan. The current clean MOT reinforces the sense of a properly sorted Classic.
With its specification, low mileage and impressive condition, this Range Rover deserves serious attention.
