Introduction:

If you have been looking for that exceptionally serviced, gem-like 1995 RRC LWB with the crown jewel of Range Rover equipment in perfect working order – yes, I mean AIR SUSPENSION – then your search is over!I could not wait to get a hold of this vehicle and see her through to the condition she is in now.I have spent the entire summer using it as my own family beach/outing vehicle, sorting her needs and adding my special touches.She is available now for someone yearning to have that same experience – wrapped up in what most will argue as the best RRC ever produced.I have much to say and invite you to read on about this incredible truck.

Service:

Driving & Performance:

This timeless beauty not only looks the part, she plays it exceptionally well!She fires right up and the motor whirs to life with Swiss-watch precision.The motor is quiet, smooth, tic/knock/overheating free with tons of available power.That said, every hour put on the motor the valve job continues to bed-in and open up – more and more powerful as time goes on.Power is added here with the Borla Pro exhaust system.Always quiet while cruising, she is the perfect balance of V8harmony and subtle roar when you punch the accelerator.The transmission shift quality is positively F1 like with no slippage, shudder, or hesitation at all.The shift points are incredibly smooth and positive and they go virtually undetected, even under deceleration, where you tend to feel kick back from load on the transfer case.To that point, the Borg Warner transfer case does not bind or grind at all and there is no whistle or howl as you find yourself highway cruising.

I drive all of my vehicles hard.I have full intention of sorting every last gripe that comes to my attention.Why?First off, it’s simply just easier for me to fix it than to hope it heals itself and more importantly, I would rather it break in the shop instead of on race day (meaning, I look towards reliability.To get home from the supermarket.To make it back from the movies.To withstand the perils of a ginding line at the Starbucks Drive-Thru window)!After a major overhaul, I really push my vehicles and expect them to perform.And what I find that falls short, gets fixed.The result is greater peace of mind I have been commuting with her daily and she is relentlessly reliable in all conditions.Of course due to the top-end overhaul including a personal touch – the 160 degree, triple bridge, single bypass thermostat.It’s the same one I race with and really takes care of the motor under the most demanding conditions.To top it off, you spotters may see pink coolant in the new reservoir.Why?Land Rover XLC coolant is the newest available for high performance aluminum engines.It cools better, transfers heat away better and the result is a cooler, less corrosive formula that protects in a way “the green stuff” used in 95 just couldn’t!

A WORD ON HOW FANTASTIC EAS IS – The purists will argue that the original Range Rover was coil sprung and it should have never been messed with.The other camp of purists will argue that EAS is what makes a Range Rover a Range Rover.I would agree with both camps, for different reasons but I will say that when you have a vehicle such as this, with life-long attention paid to the EAS system, you will experience the BEST ride quality available in any RRC.If you never have, and always wondered, you will be blown away by the comfort level while crossing speed bumps, pot holes, crowned and dipped road unions among others.And let’s not be humble and beat around the bush – in a line up of nice looking RRC’s at any club function, where owners have subscribed to the consensus that coil sprung conversions are the way to go, guess which vehicle will take all the attention when you swoop in, and exit the vehicle once “access height” lowers you to almost sports car like height!From this point on in its life, EAS maintenance is easy and straight forward in my opinion.And considering it’s only a couple hundred bucks to swap in a set of coil springs, why not give it a go and experience a 95 the way they were intended!It is a great feeling, and I for one, love it.

The brakes have been overhauled too.With brand new rotors and sport pads in all corners, you achieve great stopping power with zero noise, minimal dust, and no ride rattle.This set up has about a month on it and again, with every hour put on them, increases in power.If you need to, you can stand this truck on its head!

The Pirelli Scorpion ATR’s were a great replacement to the stock XMS’s.They have an aggressive look, are the correct stock size and have racing pedigree to back the brand which is nice.While newly fitted, the fronts are slightly more worn – as to be expected – I expect these would serve a season or so before you go looking for replacements.

As I have said, this Rover drives with more sense of purpose than her peer group and I’m confident that within the first 5 minutes you’ll agree.That’s what a loved quality product over time is all about!

Aesthetics & Operation:

Take a good look at the provided magazine advert from 1995.This Black on Tan colour combination was considered the flagship package back then.It is timeless, stately, and luxurious.No doubt she owes the preservation of her interior to fanatical attention.The open glass leaves the cabin nice and bright and the original woodwork and paneling retain their original warmth.

The Beluga Black refinish is ultra smooth and undeniably reflective.Running your fingers over her glossy surface the vehicle actually feels soft.I have shared as many pictures as possible in varied light to illustrate how 1) Factory Perfect the color is and 2) How nuanced and rich the tones are depending on ambient lighting.Pay close attention to the floating clouds in some of her glamour shots… she is positively mirror finished and polished to perfection.No, you can’t make 20+ year old stamped aluminum brand new.But every effort to reverse the signs of fine lines and wrinkles has been made and it shows!

All original finishing and materials are in good to excellent condition.The soft-dash is clean and knick free.The carpeting is still soft and clean.All door cards are tidy and sturdy.The wood work is clean and still rather dark but the center console tray exhibits typical tiger striping in the veneer.Please see featured photos.

Pay close attention to the detailed photos of common stress areas – they are factory fresh and rust free.All bulkhead, floorpan, rear tray, arches and jambs… all clean and tight.

The OEM Harmon Kardon Audio is crystal clear and powerful – made even better by the upgraded high power Pioneer Blue Tooth unit.This is a nice upgrade over stock audio output and allows for hands free, modern music and communication applications.

The headliner is brand-new and from top to bottom, she feels (and even smells) like a new car.To that point, she has never been a smokers car and there are no lingering odors in the cabin or ventilation system.

The AC is serviced and works BRILLIANTLY.Your exposed skin is freezing in minutes and thankfully, the heating works just as well to take the bite away!

Lights, horns, blinkers, windows, handles, latches, etc all work too, cruise does not.There is a smaller than dime sized ping on the front windscreen, the chrome rims are nice and bright but have some pitting on the inner louvers but outside of that I cannot spot any other cosmetic gripes.

Thoughts on Titles, Vehicle History & Brands:

When you have ANY rare edition vehicle that has experienced any hardship over its life, they are almost always worth saving.I’ve seen more Defenders with branded histories lately than ever before – I have seen them rolled, crushed and burned to the ground sell for $25K...When they are finished however, they are often better than anything else out there.When I got my hands on this 95, she needed paint (although was previously painted in an off match black color), and had a minor parking pylon crease in the LH Front fender.I simply couldn’t let this fantastic truck go seeing its ultimate potential and the work began.The fender was replaced, painted in Beluga Black as you see her now, and of course, all of my other major services.The result is astounding and I knew I would’ve lost sleep if I let her get away.Now, having passed new California Star Smog requirements as well as Brake/Lamp/Frame certification (which is as brutally thorough as aBritish MOT inspection) I would also argue that she out classes her peers in overall system integrity.

Purchasing, Perspective & Why Buy From Me:

Please read my outstanding feedback from folks like you! No one sends off a Land Rover or Range Rover better than me, PERIOD. It’s the vehicle I drive, and the vehicle I RACE. Nearly two decades of Rover ownership and service are poured into every Rover that I see into new hands.
The commitment to service here is a commitment to my own passion and to a shared bond between enthusiasts. You wont find that anyplace else. Beware of any vintage Rover that does not share the same service points as the ones I advertise with my collection. They are ESSENTIAL for long term reliability and any Rover without these services are ticking time bombs. I am not a Land Rover tech that drives home in a Honda Civic. I come from a long line of British Car technicians and Live, Breathe and even RACE the green oval. I understand ALL of your concerns and needs and do my best to ensure that you will be happy based on a simple, yet powerful concept: DOES THIS VEHICLE MAKE ME HAPPY? WOULD I PUT MY FAMILY IN IT? WOULD I LOVE TO HAVE IT? The answer is always yes. And that’s when I know they are ready. I care. I know you do, too.

To that point - watch out for my copy cats. It has come to my attention that people claim they work with/partner with me. This is not true. If you aren’t buying one from me… its, well, NOT from me!!!

THE IDEA OF "NEW TO ME VS. A NEW CAR"

I am VERY proud of each and every Rover that I hand select and hand-craft. As amazing as all of them are, i wouldnt ever say any of them are "perfect." None of them are and I have only used the term museum piece ONCE. And i am well aware of the qualifiers for that monicker.

With each and every listing, i try to capture the flavor of what strikes me about each vehicle. I try to capture their essence. I try to make the description feel like a conversation between you and I, or even a phone call. Covering the general and intimate details that stand out to me. That said, we all know that while they are all Rovers, all made in the same place, each one is different. While I try to make my listings fun, informative and conversational, it still doesn’t cover the other five million previously fitted or original parts left on the truck:

It is not possible to discuss every nut and bolt, but I have done my best to list and discuss what would matter to ME. Let me know what matters TO YOU. While she may soon be “new to you” she is “not new” and you should be prepared for all that is involved with owning a used vehicle. She is sold as-is without warranty or exception and there are no refunds. That said, there is not ANYTHING that concerns me about her overall reliability, cosmetics and functionality. If there were gross issues, I would be talking about that – in fact – I would have fixed them! I invite you to ask ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS NOW!

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE – ASK AWAY!

There are no queries too obscure; your satisfaction is the goal here. Additionally, eBay offers a 3rd party inspection service to verify ALL of your acquisition needs IN PERSON. Purchase of the vehicle = SATISFACTION. Once this auction is over, the winning bid and purchase imply that satisfaction has been achieved and will be understood as such.

This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION so you are bidding to win! Please make sure that you bid ONLY what you are prepared to pay. This means, when the auction is over, and the winning bid is placed, this becomes THE SALE PRICE of the vehicle. Under no circumstances does it open the door to negotiate or back out of your commitment. The people bidding for this vehicle actually want it. Do not spoil their chances at ownership by arm-chair bidding. Yes, everyone joins eBay at some point, and there is no prejudice against lower transaction numbers here – HOWEVER – if I suspect and/or become aware of any insincerity on the part of said bidder, I reserve the right to cancel all bids from and block that insincere bidder from this auction.

Completion of this transaction is fairly straight forward. Once the auction is over, I will be contacting the winner immediately and we can discuss sending ownership materials and payment. YES – I can help with shipping – I will call someone that I have known for a long time... get you two in touch and wish you the best. You can use them or not... I'm just happy to make a call on your behalf.

Who is this truck for?
