Used Land Rover Range Rover for sale

A history of the Range Rover

The idea of a Range Rover was always to combine comfort and on the road and off-road ability. Providing owners with space, safety, and as many features as they could possibly want in the car. The Range Rover classic created in the 1970s, and running till 1996 was the product of years of extensive testing. Upmarket families and farmers wanted the Range Rover, yet surprisingly didn’t actually gain the second set of doors until 1981. And it was in the same year that they’re ‘In Vogue’ limited edition Range Rover was launched. With an automatic transmission, the car appeals further still, allowing pretty much anyone to drive it.

The Range Rover of the 1980s brings beautiful large engines, stunning wooden trim and interior, and a range of luxury features. You could now find electric seats, electric windows, and electric sunroof. This was just the thought of what the Range Rover had planned. Early into the 1990s, a long-wheelbase model with electronically controlled air suspension went on sale, an introduction that would be key features of its replacement. The Range Rover Classic, which once was the original, remained in production for a further two years.

The original Range Rover will always be held as a masterpiece, it is an example of how far we have come in the design of cars. And everything leading up to the Range rovers that we know today. Fast forward some 45 years, and there is a wide range of Range Rovers available to you. The smaller Land Rover models are the Range Rover Evoque and a Discovery Sport. That’s quite close in size, but they are pitched to different buyers. The Evoque is more stylish based on a lifestyle SUV, while the Discovery Sport is more practical.
