Description
The vehicle will be tax and MOT exempt in three years' time, so would make a timely investment. All glass is original and has the reg number etched into it. This is not an over-modified vehicle but almost in its original condition.
The upgrade to the 3.9l V8 engine makes this vehicle perfect for actively participating in traffic rather than just floating in it.
This is a head turner wherever you go, visually as well as acoustically.
Details:
- most importantly, this vehicle is keeping you dry even in heavy rain!
- Stedi Homage headlights fitted for visibility.
- chassis is in good condition and has been Lanoguard'ed last summer and would be due a refresh this year.
- The original V8 has been swapped by one of the previous owners for a 1992 Range Rover Classic 3.9l V8, paperwork still shows the original 3.5l.
- bodywork shows a lot of patina, which at least deters theft of doors etc. door bottoms are obviously not perfect but certainly don't require immediate attention.
- engine starts immediately and runs smoothly and had recently got a new alternator, distributor cap and rotor, battery and starter. I have also added a coolant level sensor to ensure you hear when the coolant level drops.
- front geometry was neglected by previous owners resulting in uneven tyre wear. I have had this sorted and the tyres swapped front to rear. Now drives and steers like new.
- bulkhead is generally okay. The top corners will need some attention in the future as do the bottoms of the A-pillar before things get worse, but again, like the doors, no immediate action is required.
- speedo stuck at 100k, but mileage verifiable via fuel tracking app.
- wind and rain deflectors added.
- the interior is very original and I have added a few improvements like cup holders, USB charging ports, magnetic phone holder in the front. The rear received a few cargo rails to secure loads and hang coats, hats etc. There is cabling in place to install a leisure battery.
- several security layers are added.
- small steering wheel lets you drive the vehicle with windows closed.
- front windows are electric and towing electrics work.
- rear wheel carrier installed.
- front bumper isn't original and comes with unconnected lights in the bumper.
- front number plate is a sticky on one, a standard reg plate comes with it though.
Easy on the-road-road project, or keep driving it and fully restore once historical status is received in three years.
