Range Rover Classic

I've always rather liked the Classic, along with the P38 too, but I think prices are a little strong:

162,000 miles, 25k! 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Pity that they cannot decide if it is a 4.2 or a 4.6V8! I reckon it will be the former unless it has been modified with the P38. Engine which was available as a 4.6V8. Also the wheels don't look right, they are Defender/ Disco1 wheels by the look of them.

Late plate Defenders are getting ludicrous money these days too, I've seen the 90 Autobiography (only 60 of them were made for world wide sales IIRC) that retailed at 61000 new last year for sale 12 month and 5000 miles later on a main dealer website for 93,000 Shocked But even less rarified last production 110 XS's are getting >45k 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

It's a soft dash, so not a "classic" classic. But a very nice car. Agree with the engine confusion, clearly somebody didn't knew exactly what he's looking at...

BTW how d'you reckon, a fully restored (frame/drivetrain/suspension/body/interior) LHD 2-door 1973 Classic in very good condition. What would it be worth in the UK? Regards etc.,

Actually the engine size appears to be pot luck!!! 4.2 and 4.6 in the "Headline" and 4.3 on the left hand "Special Features" section.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

!973 is very early production, I was on a ship that carried the first 6 2 door Range Rovers as the first export models to Dubai in March 1976 and 4 of them were made into open tops because the information given regarding height was some 200mm wrong............ We had been given the standard height of the cars by Land Rover and as Aircon was not even an option on them in the early days these 6 had been fitted with a roof mounted Aircon unit that stuck up some 150-200mm ABOVE the roof................. Closing our hydraulic twee decks of the ship wasn't a problem but after 4 months in transit from Liverpool to Dubai when we came to open the tween deck something protruding beneath the hinges caught on the roofs of 4 of the Rangies and there was a horrible ripping noise as the AC unit got torn off, then part of the roof.................... Even in this state I got to drive one of them from Dubai port to the importers yard and vowed one day I would own a Range Rover. It took a while but in 2003 I had saved enough on my megre salary at the time to buy a brand new L322 TD6 SE in Monte Carlo Blue with Navy hide and parchment trim. I felt so good driving out of the dealership in it after 27 years of saving! I've only owned Range Rovers since then (I bought the Defender in 2001 when I got the off-road bug during Freelander ownership!).

Back to topic, in good nick a 2 door Classic is worth a lot of money here. However if it were an early 4 door In Vogue edition still with all the original picnic kit that made it the In Vogue special edition then you could probably buy a new L494 HSE on the proceeds! The Brooklands LSE and Holland and Holland Special editions are worth even more! But the Ogle 6 wheeled ones are not so valuable. Range Rovers had 6 wheel custom built specials by Ogle and Tickford long, long before AMG did what they did to the GWagen and basically all were ordered by Emiratis and Bahranis, I don't think many stayed in the UK or even Europe. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
