Description

Range Rover first series built in 1971 (first year of production of the few left-hand drive versions of this model) and registered for the first time in Italy in 1972.

3500cc V8 petrol engine, with 130 hp and manual transmission with permanent four-wheel drive and manually lockable central differential.

This very rare example with chassis “Suffix A", originally left-hand drive, had only two previous owners before being purchased in 2009 by a well-known Milanese collector and fashion entrepreneur, who oversaw its restoration by entrusting it to Mario Galbiati, the official coachbuilder of Zagato, well-known for having hand-crafted most of the Milanese designer's custom-built cars and for having restored many of the cars in the Alfa Romeo Museum in Arese.

The body has been completely renewed, while the original and still very good interior has been maintained on the car.The principal components of the mechanics has been overhauled and the car has ready to drive condition, presented in its rare original paint shade “Tuscan Blue" with the old Italian registration plates.
