More information to follow:The first-generation Range Rover was produced between 1970 and 1996. The original car was not designed as a luxury 4×4; while certainly up-market compared to preceding Land Rover models, the early Range Rovers had fairly basic, utilitarian interiors with vinyl seats and plastic dashboards designed to be washed down with a hose. Features such as power-assisted steering, carpeted floors, cloth-and-leather seats, and wooden interior trim were fitted later. The Range Rover was a body-on-frame design with a box-section ladder chassis similar to contemporary Land Rovers. The Range Rover utilised coil springs as opposed to leaf springs, permanent four-wheel drive and four-wheel disc brakes and was originally powered by the Rover V8 engine. The In Vogue went on sale in February, 1981; a limited run of 1, 000 was produced, all of which were almost replicas of the one-off Range Rover produced for a Vogue photoshoot, minus the special alloy wheels, but with the same coachwork, colour and uprated interior.
