    1996 Range Rover

    My TAFE teacher has purchased himself a '1996' Range Rover

    after a brief glace last night in the car park on the way to train station it looked to be in pretty good condition , colour white ,said he paid $9k for it , the vehicle is on it's 2nd engine at 196,000 kms .

    'Ken' has purchased the RR from a friend of his and story goes that his friend's wife had kept driving the car with the Oil light on for 2 weeks before engine siezed.

    Ken sayd he absolutely luurves driving the Rangie with a 4.6 and is considering installing Gas injection system .

    now Guys , it looks awefully like a P38a . can anyone confirm without looking at the RR that it is a P38?

    It either is or isn't.
    I do not understand.
    You think it could be a RRC?
    The RRC's ceased in 94 with some last models maybe sold in 95.

    P38's look totally different.

    Won't get much luggage in there with the 2nd engine in it.
    But it will be handy to have the spares should it break down!
