Particularly original car, ready for restoration
Complete mechanical work recently carried out

In working order, with no water or oil added

The Appeal

With its 'go-anywhere, do-anything' philosophy, the classic Range Rover remains one of Land Rover's greatest achievements - a versatile off-roader with an interior that is far less utilitarian than its predecessors, paving the way for modern SUV design.

This example in Plymouth Blue represents an excellent opportunity for a cosmetic restoration - it is in good mechanical order, with much engineering work already completed. All that remains is to restore the bodywork and finish to its former glory.

We have no doubt that this project will prove very rewarding for its lucky purchaser.

✓ We ask that a non-refundable fee is paid if you are the lucky winner of the auction or if your bid is accepted. Please refer to our FAQs and terms and conditions for specific fees.

✓ This vehicle is "sold as is", on an "as is, where is" basis and without warranty. Photographs and descriptions are for illustrative purposes only and it is customary to carry out a full vehicle inspection prior to 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 tender price, as specified in the advert.

✓ We also check whether vehicles are registered as written off as part of a total loss at the time the advert is placed on Car & Classic and 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 status of the vehicle and it is always worth carrying out a full vehicle history check before making an offer on it.
