Interesting. Diplomatic sale makes total sense on that kind of car.

“Land Rover for full restoration”

It’s literally held together with ratchet straps. 2 of them are stopping it turning into metal origami

Not so much a project as a vin plate and about a ton of scrap.

It seems mad when you look at these wrecks that I bought this a few years ago (2015 I think) for £800, spent the same on it and sold it for £4k about a year later.
It did look like it had spent a few years in a hedge when I got it, but a weekend cleaning and painting the door tops and wheels was the only cosmetic work that I carried out.

Oh look, my favourite dodgily-named luxury car dealer has a a Range Rover ! If it wasn't for the "rare" interior colour (their description not mine), and the fact I've just bought one, I'd be checking it out.

Description says black but the photos look like a dark purple - I like it.
