Tidy Range Rover Classic in smart overall condition
Offered with no reserve
Very solid condition
Drives well, with new wheels and tyres
THE APPEAL
Values of Range Rover Classics have shot up in recent years, with the best examples commanding substantial five-figure sums.
The model is one of the UK’s most up-and-coming classics, and here’s one that’s a really tidy example offered for sale without reserve, which will make it hugely appealing to someone who may want to get behind the wheel of one before they go for silly money. It’s a good one, too – solid and smartly presented with lots of prior history.
THE HISTORY AND PAPERWORK
109k from new
Huge file of history and paperwork
Recently serviced by vendor
Old books and manuals
UK V5C
New MOT
Cherished plate not included in sale
THE INTERIOR
Grey velour
Good seats, carpets and trim
Smart and presentable
Modern stereo upgrade
The Range Rover is clean and tidy inside with no real issues – the grey velour trim is in excellent order, as are the carpets, headlining and door trim. It’s not perfect, but it’s all very presentable.
All of the major dials and controls work as they should and there’s a modern stereo with a USB interface for further modern appeal.
THE EXTERIOR
Unusual Cassis Red
Very presentable
Some minor marks
Refurbished alloy wheels and new tyres
Very good arches and bulkhead
Finished in the rare colour of Cassis Red, the Range Rover is very presentable and free of any major issues, though there are a few areas where there are small marks, deterioration or lacquer peel. The vendor has just had the bonnet repainted to alleviate the worst of this and the Range Rover looks great in general, but the vendor is keen to make the new owner aware that there will be a few small areas of cosmetic attention needed in future.
The chassis is said to be excellent and there’s no rust to be seen in the sills, bulkhead or door shut areas, where Range Rovers commonly have issues.
It also has refurbished alloy wheels and new tyres all-round.
THE MECHANICS
Drives very well
Automatic transmission
Works well in high and low range
Serviced prior to sale
Equipped with the 3.9-litre version of the venerable Rover V8, the Range Rover runs beautifully and engages both high and low range gears as it should, via a three-speed automatic transmission.
It has been well-maintained by its previous owners, as evidenced by a comprehensive history file, and it drives really well.
SUMMARY
Taken as a part-exchange by the vendor, who specialises in V8 Range Rovers, the Classic isn’t up to his usual standards of absolutely perfect examples – but it won’t take a huge amount to take it to the next level as it’s a really sound and solid truck, with good history and evidence of being well-maintained in the past. It’s a great way into Range Rover Classic ownership without having to pay top dollar, and it won’t take a lot to make it very special indeed.

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.
