Wrong sized tyres 205's (should be 235's) horrid replacement vinyl decals (should be raised plastic) wrong exhaust box

Should i continue

If asking top value then A, attention to detail should be paramount & B, tyre size would be a safety concern no?

I saw a 93 k range in met grey today priced at 4995 no idea spec or miles though outside a unit in rugeley

The air suspension has been removed and replaced with springs so essentially it's not an example of an original LSE, just a bastardised Classic. Might as well replace the engine with a perkins diesel and be done with it.

Not even the later soft dash model. 4 grand is closer to the mark based on the distinct lack of attention to detail, non original suspension etc. Nice condition but needs strong money spending to make it a collector's item.

Well E4 Guy, they told you off, that will teach you: never ever show a land rover product saying that it looks nice and that you like it, you'll be on you knees bleeding from 43 wounds and yelled at before you can say HEEEELP

paid less then 10% of that for mine last year But it is an ongoing project and will never be concourse standard as it gets driven 120+ miles a week, lives outside and gets used.




The LSE prices are on the way up, as there's about 325 left on the road, and about the same on a SORN.

The spring conversion is something mine has, but is on the list to be done in the spring after I replace the headlining and put a new heater in it (how I'm looing forward to a total dash removal again). For the sake of about £800 in bags and ride height sensors it's a no brainer to put them back on air if the the ECU is still there.

The killer is getting some spares. Interior trim is very expensive, you can pay £1000 for the rear seat trays, and the drinks cabinet would be more than myLSE is worth. Rears doors are nearly impossible to find and I found that little things such as transmission oil cooler pipes are a pain to find in stock.

The pain is all worth it for the sound of the V8, and it's a lovely drive.

Have to thank mine though, as getting the LSE spurred me to change the D3 for a FFRR.

Ahh hadn't noticed that...

The troublesome air suspension system has been removed and replaced with the standard height coil springs.

Thing that baffles me is how could they replace with standard height coil springs, when the LSE was only ever produced on air I presume they have used normal 100" coil springs which must be different to the ones needed for a 108" car!

Given that it's 8" worth of extra metal I would agree. Standard 100" springs would be too soft.

OEM tyres on a normal Classic were 205's yes... LSE's were 235's sir
