    New project 89 vogue

    Ok so this seems to happen every 6 months or so, but I have bought another car, another range rover.

    I think it is an 89 Vogue SE. Picked it up cheap, circa $400, so can afford to scrap it if it doesn't work out.
    It's not licenced, haven't seen it run yet, but it has potential, as it doesn't have a lot of rust, its complete for the most part, and its pretty straight.

    I haven't been able to confirm it's running gear yet, but it looks like a 3.9 with auto trans and the viscous centre. It has been on gas, but apparently the gas stopped working and thus they stopped using the car and let it run out of rego.
    The good thing is that it looks like it will have working air con, something I have never had on a classic rangie!

    It needs an alternator and a couple of heater hoses, then just need to check the wiring for the gas etc and see what the issue is.

    Good buy, Jezz!! At that price, you can't really go wrong.
    Any photos if the interior? Does it have the electric moonroof? Looks pretty original on the outside too!

    No photos of interior yet, but yes it has the moon roof. Someone had obviously come along before me and removed all the switches for the electric windows and heated seats

    Let me know if it turns out to be a 'scrapper'... I tried to push over a tree with my tailgate some months ago, and it has'nt opened since. - Don't ask ! Not Impressed with myself... (- 'gate is Very Impressed..;.with the tree... )

    I paid nearly half that for a set of (same) mags with rubbish tyres. - You did well !!!

    I should have a spare lower tailgate around somewhere, though you will need to open it to remove it anyway?

    I've tried, but it won't polish out....

    I paid a crap load more for my 89, what a great buy.

    If you ever want to get rid of the woodgrain dash panel, let me know.

    Good luck with the project, what is it going to be, daily driver or bush truck?

    Looks like it's a mid-year build date. Concealed door hinges but no 3.9, ABS or revised cluster.
