1989 Land Rover Range Rover County AWD 4dr SUV Description

Fifty years on, the Range Rover enjoys a unique position in the world of classic cars. A 4×4 which isn’t utilitarian, a design classic that was never really styled, and one of very few truly classless classics – at home on the estate, whether that means Blackbird Leys or Blenheim Palace. And the formula which has captivated people for five decades still charms today. It doesn’t matter if you’re a brickie or a bank manager, the Range Rover makes a compelling case for itself as a classic to show and shine, or to use every day. The idea was first considered as early as the Land Rover itself – but to hit the right note took time. The eventual result looked little like contemporary Rover cars, and the Road Rover development name had been replaced with the now familiar epithet. A 100” chassis with coil springs and the Rover V8 was clothed in a body originally designed to suit testing, and one which served its market well for well over two decades. An ideal everyday family classic, or something suitable for those who live in the countryside to use all year round, the Range Rover has no shortage of appreciative fans and, significantly for first-time owners, the knowledge is out there to keep an RR in tip-top form.
