Still a classy and well-equipped luxury 4x4 this P38 has been converted to run on LPG for much greater economy, which is not a phrase you’ll normally find in a sentence that includes the words Range Rover.
It’s recently been converted from the troublesome air suspension to coils and new shock absorbers all round. The car runs and drives nicely, and although it’s a bit tired cosmetically, if you’re in the market for a Range Rover that needs some tidying up, read on.
The current owner has owned the Range Rover for the last few years during which time he has used it lightly and regularly. Just prior to his ownership the LPG system was renewed and updated and it has recently been converted to run on coil springs.
The HSE comes with a spacious and luxury interior with plenty of wood and leather, it’s well equipped, air-conditioned and is an extremely comfortable car to travel in.
This one needs some work to tidy it up, a few switches are broken and or missing and the driver’s seat and the headlining need some attention too, but the passenger and rear seats are in pretty good shape
The interior trim on the pillars are a bit miscoloured but the wood inserts dashboard and centre console are all good, with all electrics and switches working.
The air-conditioning is not blowing as cold as it should so may need gas or further investigation and there is an updated stereo unit fitted.
The dark grey Range Rover initially looks impressive with alloy wheels, side steps and privacy glass. As you get closer you can see that the paintwork isn’t perfect and there are a few areas that may need some attention.
A few panels are quite faded in places and some of the door frames have discoloured, there are also some other small bumps, scrapes and stone chips too as is illustrated in the photos.
Bought with no real service history the car has proved a reliable and excellent car for its regular use commuting, and some long-haul trips to the Scottish highlands during his ownership.
Lifting the bonnet reveals a clean and well-maintained engine bay, which shows no signs of any oil or coolant leaks.
The car is reported to run and drive very nicely with no issues to advise or report.
The P38 Range Rover is another iconic Land Rover now certainly regarded as a genuine and collectable classic car, with prices rising all the time.
With its high HSE specification, leather and wood interior, it’s a model that will always be in demand, and of course it delivers that very unique and special Range Rover driving pleasure.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
