The charm

 
The two-door Range Rover Classic is in a league of its own. The first luxury 4x4, it embodies a true heritage of tough vehicles capable of going anywhere and doing anything. These early examples are increasingly prized today for their rugged elegance and their characterful V8. This 1982 example, finished in Tuscan Blue with beige velour upholstery, has an elegant stance, in a colour that perfectly showcases its typical 1980s lines.
 
This 4x4 has benefited from significant investment in recent years, with bodywork restoration, mechanical refurbishment and interior renovation carried out since 2021. The seller describes the vehicle as generally in good condition, but notes that a general service is recommended before regular road use.

BEFORE YOU BUY 
This sale is subject to Car & Classic's terms and conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following: 
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means that consumer rights arising from European consumer protection legislation do not apply. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic's terms and conditions. 
✓ We require non-refundable fees to be paid if you are the winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted. Please refer to our FAQs and terms and conditions for the specific rates. 
✓ This vehicle is "sold as seen", on a "as is, where is" basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are provided for guidance only, and it is customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle before purchase for your own peace of mind. 
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's deposit. VAT may or may not be included in the final offer or bid price, as specified in the listing. 
✓ We want the transaction to go smoothly, just like you do, which is why cars and motorcycles registered in the United Kingdom and listed for sale on Car & Classic are subject to an HPI check to confirm they carry no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and are not subject to a financial charge, so you can bid with confidence. 
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as written off following a total loss at the time the listing is placed on Car & Classic, and we provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) to help you. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle's status, and it is always worthwhile carrying out a full vehicle history check before making an offer on it. 
✓ Buyers are responsible for collecting or delivering the vehicle. Importing vehicles may incur additional customs duties and import taxes. If you wish, we can recommend a third-party transport company that can help. For more details and to speak to the team, email auctions@carandclassic.com.
