Anyone own a Linley P38 Range Rover?

Nothing more than a general wondering, but given they are the rarest of the P38 Range Rovers (only 10 made) and cost over £100k new, does anyone own one today?

I imagine they are all on the middle east/US, but would be nice to find one in the UK!

Wow...what is this strange mechanical beast that shares my name?

Here's some spiel about it:

Each Range Rover Linley will be built on the production line and then transferred to Land Rover’s on-site Special Vehicles facility for a further 100 hours of hand-finishing from craftsmen.

The piano black coachwork is achieved by hand-spraying with a solid black paint which is hand-polished to a mirror finish. To complement the coachwork the 18 inch multi-spoked alloy wheels have a unique ‘Shadow Chrome’ finish. To match the coachwork even the windows are polished with jeweller’s rouge to add that extra sparkle.

That's cool to see! What state was it in when you got it, and how much work does it need? What needs doing?

Also, do you mind me asking how much you picked it up for? Interested to see if they retained any of their value! PM me if you prefer to keep the details more private

I know this is a very old post but I’m doing some research.

I know there is the one at the dunsfold collection. But there is also one sat at an independent Land Rover repairs next door to me. It is currently sat there rusting away.

Going to ask if he would sell it and for how much. It would be a shame for one of the 5 remaining to just rust away.

Hi Matt, how did your chat with the garage go? Did you buy it?

Hi Matt, how did your chat about the Linley go? Do you confirm it is a genuine one, and is the guy looking to sell? Drop me a message either way, would love to know more about it! 👍🏼
