    What Year/Price

    What year were Range Rovers all electric such as mirrors and windows? And how much would you pay for one in good condition cosmetically and drive line but with a blown or no motor at all?

    I know first question is prob stupid and the second not easy to answer but i figured you guys might have an idea

    From what i have read on the internet it seems 89 was the year of many refinements?

    Meaning things such as electric mirrors and windows plus heated mirrors. Correct me if i am wrong.

    In regards to price, I would be expecting max of about 1000 bucks for a 89 model rangie with a blown/no motor.

    In good condition with motor (3.5efi) about 2500max IMHO.
    I rule!!!

    What model 98 disco do you have? It depends on the model you get.

    Most will have:

    Windows
    Mirrors
    A/C
    Central Locking
    Cruise

    Some will have sun roofs etc


    What are you looking for?

    My Disco is a D1 seven seat model with all the electrics no cruise or sunroofs.

    I am after a clean Range Rover late 80 maybe early 90s if the price is right. And my old man and i were talking about putting my 300Tdi into the Range Rover but i plan on keeping my creature comforts. I don't care much for sunroofs but if one for the right price has one i wont complain.

    But i don't want one with Airbags as this will interfear with me getting some bars and body lift

    Only the last of the classics had airbags, with the softdash

    86 on is what your after 85 were similar but with a crappy...er... centre console and with a TF trannsmission

    pay $1500 for a clean car with a doggy engine

    Oh the RR WILL be more comfy than your disco

    Thank you very much! I will keep my eyes peeled for that perfect rangy I wouldn't mind one with some work already done to it to save some money but i am mostly concerned on the condition I will keep my eyes out for an 86 onwards

    I have an 84 rangy but it is looking very sad and doesn't have the bits i want so to save effort i will simply buy another and i am well aware of how comfortable they are to drive as i have done so many times before in the old rangy

    I will still miss my Discovery as i am very fond of it but i am sure i will love the rangy just as much if not more
