I have the same one, but its a 1993 LSE, same hard dash and Beluga black in colour. No rust at all, maybe because I'm from Melbourne Australia. Spent a lot maintaining it. Try to stock up on the TPS sensor as they are no longer available, mine is the round one, there are different versions of it. Also, the original sunroof drainage tubes are small and easily clog up, I had mine replaced with bigger tubes after getting the whole sunroof rebuilt.
On my model under the drivers seat is a computer that controls the drivers electric seat and it also controls the electric door mirrors. It has a battery in there, similar to the one found in air-conditioning units, replace it every 10 to 12 years as they leak and will damage the circuit board.
@@andrewwatkins6529 I had mine rebuilt in Maidstone, about 15 minutes away from Melbourne CBD. The company is called 'Custom Classic Sunroofs' 9318 6445 at 110 Mitchell Street Footscray 3012. I had two new track assemblies installed, new seals and larger drainage tubes put in as well.
Why would anyone consider them "collector's cars" when they're world famous for being complete pieces of crap? Even Jeremy Clarkson bashed it for its unbelievably terrible reliability.

Good Video. Nice Range Rover. That car is MINT. Never Break it for Parts. Anything Can be Repaired on a Rangey. Save up & Make it Perfect. Take a long time to Repair something every few months. Slowly it will be perfect. Do you still Have it ? Make another video of what you have repaired.
You got a Very good deal on a pretty much pristine example...just finding the original parts are very difficult nevermind the cost...the parts alone cost a small fortune you are very fortunate indeed..enjoy your RR they are built very well only keep a close watch on any cooling system leaks and fix those right away..the engine heads are aluminum and crack easily when overheated.. I've rebuilt my engine twice learn from my mistake. Love my '91 RR
Just looked here in Australia for similar models - cheapest one was $19000, and one was just under $24000! Mind you, rust much less of a problem here, but trim bakes and falls apart in the sun.
RRCs don’t sell for that much in aus, avg price would be about 4-5K for this model, a couple sellers have put up some crazy listings since some auctions on early models went crazy a year or so ago, no one is aus is paying that much.
Garage Dilettante the early two door models is what sent the prices crazy, here in aus lwb are worth about the same as normal 4 doors, most people only buy em to rip out the 4.2 to swap into a 3.5 or 3.9 normal wheelbase model, the air suspension has a real bad reputation here.
You will be able to buy an owners manual in English, from England, or maybe from your county / Language. look on ebay ? or contact some UK Range rover Specialists.
That will be the Original Radio Cassette. It's labeled Land Rover but it will probably be a very good quality CLARION System. there will be an echo chamber in the boot. Behind the trim to the right . A strange large plastic container.
And replace half the parts in the interior! These things are some of the worst vehicles to hit the road in a LONG time. They are so awful that an Australian magazine once urged readers to never buy them new. Wait for someone to own one for a year or two and buy it from them. You save $20,000 easily. That's how bad they are.
@@largol33t1 Late model hard dash cars are perhaps the most reliable car to ever hit the road. This is the pinnacle of the tested and refined 25 year old design before it is ruined in 1994.5. My dad got mine in 98 with 40k miles, now it has 200k. Mine has been incredibly reliable so far, in the interior its had a heater core and a light switch.
I have a PDF file from the original danish seller containing a brief summary of the car's history and some other stuff too, if you don't already have it. It's also in german though. EDIT: Just saw the end of the video, I actually do have his email adress aswell.
Hello, I would appreciate the PDF file and the email of the seller. If you can, please send it to dilettantemods@gmail.com And another question, what was your role in the life of this Range Rover?
I guess in 10 yrs when the combustion engine , is no longer made new , and everyone is expected to buy electric car, can imagine fuel prices will rocket , so the value of something like this will hit the shit pan ,so my advice enjoy it for 9 yrs then sell it quickly,, cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧
Something may have happened to the owner ? or lost his job ? or moved overseas ? or Driving ban, or ill health ? or moved house & had no Parking ? It worries me when i find a car that is too nice. / price very low. sometimes people die & the family has no idea of the car's value ? The LSE can have a much lower value than the Standard version , I'm not sure why . The Only Gain with an LSE is rear passenger floor length. for when the owner is driven by a chaufure ( spelling ? ) Why else would you buy a New LSE ? 6 foot children ? on the school run ?
I found the previous owner. He’s fine. The price was low due to the tax return system in his country. Very high taxes to own an old Range Rover and you get some kind of tax refund if you export it. I have this Range Rover for over a year now and it proved to be a nice ride
I can confirm that it is an aluminum tailgate. I replaced the original back in 2006, since it was completely rotten. I also replaced the lower tailgate with a GRP item, then had it painted in the original Mosswood colour and re-applied the original lettering.
Sveikas, mane labai domina būtent šis modelis kurio ieškau Europoje įsigyti, labai įdomu būtų su tavim telefonu ar gyvai pakalbėti kaip jis važiuoja, bėdos ir pan. Ar įmanoma naudoti kaip daily driver dėl patikimumo? Kaip galėčiau su tavim susisiekti? Gal e.paštu ar Instagram. Smagūs tavo video dėl natūralumo!
isnt it true that cars in the baltic states are sometimes a combination of wrecked cars put together to form a good one? that could explain the price would it? lovely range rover tough. keep it.. (I have 2 door myself).

Used own a late model LSE. Best car I ever owned. By far. Miss it like crazy. Thinking of searching for one again...
Great color nice range lad. Stay on top of maintaince and it will never let you down. I've driven mine all over Europe and she never let me down.
I’ve sold a few rrcs throughout my time. I’m picking up a 92 vogue se in a couple of weeks and I’m not letting go of that one.
Awesome purchase. That black thing goes over a rear seat belt real

Can you pls tell us the story of this beautiful car why was it sold after all and why so cheap ??
How will they have done to install the air conditioning outlets in the central chest? I say it through the pipes through the automatic lever.
Replace the seat ECU battery before it starts leaking.
Check the front footwells under the carpet for rust.
Grease the propshafts.
Will do, thanks!

Power seats had problems with me
this a very nice vehicle
Great video and look forward to seeing more on this legendary RR. Do you still have the Cayenne?
Thanks! Yes, I still have it. Soon I will make a 36 months of Cayenne ownership video and maybe one minor repair video too.

We will see.
There's 80 % tax on fuel, so the price of fuel will come down, then they'll start taxing batteries and the carbon footprint on making them...

Thanks
Hey how much mileage are you getting?
Honestly, it’s terrible! Around 21l/100km
Beautifull LSE! What is the tires size?
Thank you! 235/70/R16 it’s out of spec and hits suspension on full lock
@@garagedilettante1128 Did you find the adjustable steering stops on the swivel cases ?
Good luck^^
Sold it already!
Nothing comes close to a Range Rover series 1 classic .
That upper tailgate you have is aluminium try it with a magnet.
I will. Is it aftermarket or all LSE had aluminium tailgates? Because when I went to see a '94 Vogue SE, it had a rusty tailgate.
Garage Dilettante here in the gulf some models came with the upper aluminium tailgate frame, but without a third brake light.
Garage Dilettante so it can be original or aftermarket. Even if them aluminium frames are very expensive.
Garage Dilettante The reason I said it's an aluminium frame is because it doesn't have that extra lip on top of the rear wiper arm.
I can confirm that it is an aluminum tailgate. I replaced the original back in 2006, since it was completely rotten. I also replaced the lower tailgate with a GRP item, then had it painted in the original Mosswood colour and re-applied the original lettering.
May be the previous owner just past away...it happens a lot you know...cheers!
No, he’s alive and fine, I found him! Or, actually, he found me!
