Just 37,386 miles (warranted) and two former registered keepers
Advisory-free MOT valid until 17th November 2024
Desirable BMW M62 4.4-litre petrol V8
Comprehensive service history with ten stamps in the maintenance booklet
The Appeal
Heralded by none other than Jeremy Clarkson as “the best car in the world and the best 4x4”, the L322 Range Rover was indeed one of the most impressive vehicles Land Rover has ever produced.
Years of BMW-backed development ensured the mistakes made during the tight-budgeted gestation of the P38 were not repeated. So by the time the L322 was ready for launch, it had been rigorously tested and superbly engineered.
For L322 fans, of which there are many, we’re pleased to offer this highly specified 2003 example which has a mere 37,386 miles on the odometer. These cars are so often a victim of their own success in that they’re so useful that most have covered stratospheric mileages. That makes this a rare survivor that’s eminently worthy of your consideration.
It appears to have only been enjoyed as a family wagon - it doesn’t even have a tow bar and the spare wheel has reportedly never been used. The specification is equally compelling. Finished in smart Monte Carlo Blue with cream piped leather interior, this car really looks the part. Under the bonnet, we find the highly regarded BMW M62 engine - a smooth and powerful 4.4-litre V8 with 286 bhp on tap.
This Range Rover is impeccably presented throughout, in very good condition and benefits from a lifetime of regular servicing.
We can heartily recommend this modern classic 4x4.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.
Bid Amount

£0 to £9,999
£100.00

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
