2005 Range Rover Vogue 4.4 V8 Tonga Green
JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 4.7V8

now i've got the FFRR this one sadly has to go

reg 15/06/2001

93K miles in patriot blue with black leather (agate) interior

so extra's - firstly factory fitted

a) side steps with mouldings - colour coded
b) front nudge bar
c) rear mudflaps
d) sunroof

extra's i've added

a) Edelbock IAS suspension struts imported from USA
b) Gibson performance exhaust imported from USA
c) jeep headlamp protectors
d) wind deflectors to all windows imported from Aus
e) RB3 sat nav inc latest five cd set inc all of europe inc boot mounted 10 cd changer (OEM)
f) Startech 'rear end' inc s/s nudge bars all painted to match the car - £978 exc painting and fitting
g) Witter towbar and all electrics
h) all trims below windows replaced with genuine jeep parts (bubbling rust as per my RR)
i) two sets of carpet mats and rubber mats - all OEM
j) rear load liner - OEM
k)rear cargo/luggage nets - OEM
l)front brake calipers upgraded to 2003 spec and custom drilled/vented discs
m)K&N air filter

o)roof rails removed and re anodised - as new - inc cross members
p) aircon 'blend flaps' replaced with upgraded version (common jeep fault) cost £700 last year
q) Bosch aero twin wiper blades


must be many more i've forgotten

since i bought it its been serviced by Peak Jeep in Chesterfield - EVERYTHING needed has been done - no shortcuts

before i bought it the car had partial service history but i lost the book - or more exactly when i sold the earlier jeep i gave the buyer the wrong handbook which he did not return

bad points - only about 17mpg

good points - never met a RR that could keep up Laughing

in truth i think i'm being honest saying there is not another in the uk like this or to this spec?

test drive welcome

£3000

try this link - detailed when i first got the car

http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=31184

seems to work

does not show the new wheels or the startech 'rear end' - but gives you a general idea

the guy who did the detail was superb - if you read the thread he spent 11 hours on the car and transformed it!

sadly due to back problems etc he had to stop detailing cars other than his own

he won numerous best in show at 'Jap' events with his Evo/Subaru

PS

you will see i got banned from the forum when i got involved with detailing politics - its a nasty world - each at each others throat

yes Tim its be used off road NOT off roaded - the difference to me is that its not been taken round offroad courses and pushed to the limit Smile

never been green laned either

just had what i consider to be usual off road use for a vehicle used in the countryside for hunting/shooting/fishing!

never been 'bottomed out/grounded' - and always used the Goodyear road tyres

given that the front/rear mudflaps and side steps are still mint should give potential buyers an indication?

tbh i'd rather have this sort of use rather than it towing a caravan for extended periods?
