The Appeal
The word "iconic" is banded about far too often, especially when talking about classic cars. But it's truly justified when referring to the original Range Rover. It was the first car ever exhibited at the Paris Louvre where it was recognised as an exemplary piece of industrial design.
This 1994 example is one of the last 'Soft Dash' Vogue SEs and one of the best of its kind we've seen. Comprehensively recommissioned and to be offered with a fresh MOT ready to roll, you'll be purchasing this Range Rover directly from the executors of the first and only owner and the vendor is including the private registration 'VOR 73' which has been fitted since new. It retains its original dealer stickers, dealer plate and handbooks, as well as VOSA documentation verifying mileage and confirming return to the supplying main dealer annually - over 17 times!
For those seeking a cherished example of the beloved Range Rover Classic, this is the one to buy.
