1974 Range Rover Classic

Earlier 3-door example with later 3.5 V8 fitted and 5-speed manual 'box; scope for improvement or enjoy as is

Dating from December 1974 this ‘D’Suffix Range Rover Classic comes in desirable 3-door guise and features the Rover V8 engine, although, we gather a later 3.5 litre engine is fitted with later five-speed manual transmission to drive all four wheels.

With our vendor since April 2004, the truck starts, runs and drives but would quite likely benefit from some recommissioning and tidying up, the paintwork past its best and the interior looking tired along with some of the usual signs of corrosion in the usual Range Rover places.

That aside, at the sensible estimate there’s scope to use and improve as you see fit – a cooler classic Land Rover there isn’t. The vendor has thoughtfully also included a box of service items and a Haynes manual to help the new owner do some bits to the truck.

The history file includes the V5C revealing nine former keepers, some 21 old MOTs and few bills for parts and works undertaken some years ago including repairs to the floor.  The vendor did note the mileage looks to jump around a little, although it looks to have had a later dash update which is not uncommon for a vehicle of this age.

Ready to use and improve or give it some light restoration, we’ll leave that up to you.
