Thread: Which RRC

I have a soft dash late 94 LSE, a great drive, sweet engine note, not bad economy on the highway and plenty of room for the back passengers. I paid just on 14,500 for mine about 2 years ago, its as rare as rocking horse sh&^ but was a $105,000 car new...

See if you can find one....and enjoy it.

'Classic' is a moniker that RRC's have got worldwide. Are there any original models that were LR stamped 'classic'?

Engineering and design concept /execution contribute to what becomes a 'classic' down the track. When other makers imitate (sometimes over a decade later) then the whole thing is reinforced.

Nothing is created perfectly, however some things are more attractive to maintain as the years go by.

That white LSE is still being advertised for sale on Carsales. It looks pretty good.

Land Rover did badge the last of the original shape Rangies as "Classic" - they were sold alongside the replacement 'P38' Rangie for a while & there needed to be a way of differentiating them.
Someone on here has an avatar showing the badge - it is a Land Rover oval 90mm wide x 48mm tall - with a flat bottomed lump underneath, the same 90mm width but only an extra 23mm tall. in the lump is CLASSIC.
Found on the tailgates (low on the L/H/S) of 'Soft Dash' cars.
Rgs, LR4WD

I didn't think they did that here in Oz LR4WD. I thought that the 'Classic' badging was confined to the UK only.

I think that the very last of the Aust rangies were badged Classic, HPR50 has a runout model so he might have the badge, I know that the badges were available seperatly as I know of a badge on a Landrover, but can't remember if it was purchased in Aust. or bought in from UK.


cheers

Yeah mine has the badge as well as piped leather, chrome bumpers and TWR wheels.

The later EFI fitted to them is better than the early "flapper" version in many ways, including fuel leaks at the fuel injectors. Also the fuel pump is accesible from inside the car, depending on where you put the gas tank.

I agree with this , go 3.9 EFi. 92-94 , Mine runs really well on LPG , has a aftermarket ignition module fitted.
