This Range Rover LSE was purchased by the current vendor from the widow of the late David Turner of Kent in 2001 at 30,059 miles. Previous owner Mr Ami Dadoun of London had purchased the Range Rover from H R Owen in 1995 at 1,175 miles and kept it until 1997; our vendor believes it may have been one of H R Owen's demonstrators. The car was first registered in November 1993 and has undergone several changes of registration since then (details on file).

There are extensive, but not exhaustive, files of bills for the period 2001 to 2025 relating to servicing, general repairs, and fitting an immobiliser. Some earlier bills, etc for the period 1997 to 2001 are present also together with MoT certificates for the period 1997 to 2002. Original or copy invoices for the purchases in 1995, 1997 and 2001 are on file, together with related correspondence in some cases.

Since 2001 the Range Rover has been maintained by the following: H R Owen; an independent mechanic in London; the Harwoods dealership; the Belgravia Garage SW1; and Land Rover specialist Derek Allfrey in West Sussex.

In October 2010 the bonnet, radiator and front wheels were damaged while the Range Rover was parked next to the old US Embassy in London; the ensuing rebuild included a respray in Maserati Midnight Blue (similar to the original Plymouth Blue). The work was carried out by Derek Allfrey and cost in the region of £15,000-20,000, but unfortunately the related invoices no longer exist.

In addition to routing maintenance and repairs, the gearbox and transmission were completely overhauled (2006); the rear chassis cross-member repaired and welded (2010); new floor panels welded into the engine bay (2017); and a 'mini tidy up' undertaken by Belgravia Garage in 2019-2020. New parts fitted include the tailgate (2006); gearbox and torque converter (2008); ABS braking system and control unit (2011); suspension air bladders (2014); hard wiring loom for ECU (2015); and fuel pipes and filter (2016).

According to our vendor, the car drives very well and has been as happy in the Scottish Highlands as on French autoroutes or around Mayfair. It has been used off road occasionally since 2001, albeit in a leisurely manner (not 'green laning') as a shooting day support vehicle. Still presentable, this well documented Range Rover LSE comes complete with jack, spare wheel, and its original vinyl handbook folder.
