Lot details

Registration No: Y237 NRD
Chassis No: SALLPAMW31A458735
MOT: September 2025

  • One of just 200 Bordeaux limited edition examples for the UK market, 100 petrol and 100 diesel
  • Current registered ownership since purchased from H&H in 2021 with seven former keepers
  • Recently the beneficiary of much expenditure including new suspension bags and compressor, headlining, paint correction and more

Twenty-five years after its triumphant introduction, what's now known as the Range Rover `Classic' gave way to the second generation of the model (code name P38A). By then the Rover's original workman-like persona had been completely transformed - long gone were the hose-down rubber flooring and basic trim, which had been replaced by increasingly deep pile carpets, leather upholstery and wood finishings. The newcomer brought a strengthened chassis and less boxy exterior, while power was now provided by upgraded 4.0-litre and 4.6-litre versions of Rover's ubiquitous all-alloy V8 engine as well as a diesel derivative using the six-cylinder 2.5-litre engine.

The limited-edition ‘Bordeaux’ was produced for the 2001 model year, with 200 examples manufactured for the UK market, 100 of both petrol and diesel variants. With a list price of £38,995 when new, they were finished in Alveston Red paintwork with colour-coded bumpers and mirrors along with Pro-Sport alloys. The interior upholstery is finished in complementary Lightstone Cream leather piped in Red with Red carpeting. ‘Y237 NRD’ was supplied new via Lancaster Land Rover of Reading, and this diesel example (fitted with the 2.5-litre TD engine) has been in current registered ownership since 2021 when purchased from the H&H December Buxton Pavilion Gardens auction.

Already displaying full service history from new when purchased, the vendor has further improved this rare Range Rover with paintwork to the front end, a new headlining and improvements to the suspension including new front suspension bags and compressor. The vendor has kept up the impeccable servicing record with a further three services since purchase at 113,184 miles, 113,664 miles and the most recent at 114,208 miles in September 2024 and he has also fitted a new, correct spare wheel and sourced an original tool kit.

Now described by the vendor as being in 'very good' condition all round, we are sure that any potential new owner would find this now very collectable vehicle a noble steed for years to come.
