It's beautiful. I remember when mine was that clean. Looks like 9k might not get it though - I guess it depends on how much you want it, you may have to go higher. Somebody paid about $55k for that 9 years ago...

Wow, thats a fine looking car. Do you want a Rangie for a daily driver or for an off road beast. If you are looking for a daily driver I dont think I've seen one thats in that good of condition. But if you are looking to take it out in the woods I would find one thats a little cheaper cause you will trash that beauty really fast. Thats just my opinion...

It looks to be super nice - go for it! This one appears to be closer to the higher end of the listing but it looks like 120k miles - its a lot no matter how good of care they took, Stuff is going to start to go out, period. Just be ready for that. Also look here at this list of things to be looking for:

Thanks a lot for the feed back, gentlemen!

Being an owner of a Land Rover has been my dream since high school......finally it got real last winter...a 89 Classic Rangie for CAD 7,500...110,000 Miles,very good shape, engine runs strong and transmission shifts smoothly, everything works, has all the maintenance records, new tires,new front shocks, new hoses, new brakes... transmission and radiator flushed,no leaks except steering box...just added 2000 miles in the past several months, so far so good, the only thing I did was engine and transfer case oil change...I am pretty sure that I will have tons of fun with her in beautiful British Columbia jungles......

Today I found this 95 RR beauty on ebay and I couldn't help dreaming of having another Rangie with LWB for my wife as a family hauler......and she is not going to offroad anyway, so no need to worry about damaging the shining paint...but the problem is.......I have to talk her to sell her Acura RL first......do I have any luck?? :-(
