SUMMARY
A fine example of the most desirable Range Rover Classic, the 'Suffix A'.
DESCRIPTION
- UK-supplied, right-hand drive, well maintained and showing just 58,000 miles from new
- Becoming increasingly sought-after, this example is attractively presented in Sahara Dust with optional Bronze cloth interior
- Offered from a private collection, accompanied by a detailed history file including invoices for a recent £30,000 body-off restoration
- A superb Range Rover classic benefitting from power-steering, offered with spare keys and complete tool kit
- The original Spencer King-designed Range Rover was one of the British motor industry's proudest success stories
Offered here is a lovely, UK-supplied, right-hand drive, 'Suffix A' Range Rover ‘Classic’ first registered in April 1971 and today showing a sensible 58,000 miles on the odometer. Finished in the popular combination of Sahara Dust paintwork with the optional Bronze cloth interior, this example presents very well after a thorough ‘body-off’ restoration.
It's accompanied by a detailed history file including invoices for the aforementioned restoration with various receipts and bills for further maintenance over the years. Pleasingly, this example retains a complete tool kit and spare keys.
Described as 'on-the-button' and ready for further enjoyment, this is a delightful example of a classic Range Rover that still looks as good today arriving at the local shoot as it did back in the ‘70s. A very useable classic that the whole family can enjoy with early cars as good as this rarely appearing on the market.
