The Appeal
The Range Rover Classic was the original luxury SUV, a car that changed the automotive landscape, combining genuine off-road capability with on-road comfort and refinement. Today, this is not such an alien concept, but at the time of launch, the Range Rover was nothing short of revolutionary.
This 1990 Vogue SE 3.9 model sits at the pinnacle of the Classic Range Rover lineup, offering the desirable combination of the more powerful 3.9-litre V8 engine and luxurious Vogue SE specification. Having remained with the same owner since new, this example is a seriously rare find in today's market. Better still, it has benefited from a comprehensive renovation programme over the past seven years, during which virtually every component has been replaced or refurbished to bring the vehicle back to a condition comparable to when it was new.
The vendor says:
"My Range Rover is running as well in 2025 as it did in 1990. As it should do, as it has been well renovated and virtually every component has been replaced during the last 7 years."
