The Range Rover Classic thread:
Discussion
I have had a few - currently got a very early "A" 2 door. The webasto leaks so it is currently sporting plenty of very natty duck tape.
I am not enough of an aficionado to care about that so I am thinking of chopping it in for a nice late 2 door. Defintiely prefer the cloth interior, no electrics and "mini metro" dash.

Thanks, can see it looks brighter green on the computer.
Another two-door in the same auction as the CSK on Thursday:
That car has been doing the rounds recently, it was originally for sale on C&C in Devon and sold by an old chap for something like £800, then re-listed on eBay the following week for £2.5k, but I don't think it got much interest. Will be interesting to see what happens. Another two-door in the same auction as the CSK on Thursday:
.I'm confused.
Been talking to a serial RR owner and he's advised me to avoid the Series 2 like the plague. Not sure if his definition of a Series 2 is the same as the OP's or is that a factory designation ?
Another question, is the 3.0 litre diesel OK ? Seen a 2002 model that I like but really know almost nothing about RR's.
Any advice welcome.

He means the P38 that came after the Classic. Been talking to a serial RR owner and he's advised me to avoid the Series 2 like the plague. Not sure if his definition of a Series 2 is the same as the OP's or is that a factory designation ?

Lovely cars. Cheap. Riddled with electronic issues.
If you go to any Rangie forum they are dominated by a million threads with the title 'My P38 won't start'.

£8,500 plus premium; CSK unsold.
Doesn't surprise me about the CSK. Firstly the whole market appears to be taking a breather from silly prices as we enter the final Q. Plus, just like the original boost in Soft Dash values has fallen away so, I think, has the CSK somewhat. The last few sold in London at top prices were messes that owners are still trying to sort and the chap in MK who had about 5 racked up in a field ready for turning out appears to have left the market after getting lumbered with the Jimmy Savill RapeMobile.
£65k is serious money, very serious, if it is not a perfect restoration by a known party.
