I drive a RR1986 and ALL its features still working, for its time it was the cream of the crop, and even now a brand new Toyota/Mitsubishi has nothing better to offer. Now you understand why my nickname (TheRRC86), thanks for the videos, it really shows all those little details that makes the RR a unique car.
Love the old adds, I have a 1989 HiLine, very similar to this one and with it's lift kit is fantastic off road, I have just bought a 2002/3 Ford Explorer XLT V8, it is a great comfortable family truck but I still wont take it off road where the Rangie goes.
It's crazy to think this is 20 years old! Back then it was called "Range Rover North America." I think I got my first Land Rover the year they started selling Range Rovers in the states. I had a 1963 88".
I don't ( as an owner of many ) think there's ever been " value " in a Range Rover since '73 when they skyrocketed from GBP2500 to GBP6000 in 8 years .
Hi all! I am wondering if you could share your view on the automatic gearbox in this model? I would assume that offroad is not the most exciting with an auto box, perhaps even frustrating? On the other hand, I would imagine that motorway cruising is comfortable and efficient with an auto box. Am I wrong? Do you agree? I am considering getting a 5 door 1995 3.9, but it is automatic and it is my only concern... thanks
No doubt. That's the impressive part. And that these were around $38,000 in the late 80s, yet you can find them today dirt cheap... It's kind of sad actually.
these videos are a real eye opener! i like how they've taken advantage of America's love of the Royal family with the 'Royal welcome'
very astute!
Thank you for posting this guide. It is very interesting to know how they wanted to sell in North American market. To me the older the better though.

That 3D model is completely unhelpful, especially once rotated. XD
"Only 10.9 seconds to sixty miles per hour..."

$38,000 in 1989 would be $75,000 today. Depreciation and inflation are a bitch.
