Land Rover Range Rover Classic Overland build 1968

Allgemeine Beschreibung : It does not get any more serious. The previous owner and commissioner of this conversion knew exactly what his prefect Range Rover should look like. An indestructible 6.2 litre V8 diesel, no turbo’s, attached to a manual 5-speed gearbox, a raised roof, a stretched bodywork and everything anyone could possible need to be self-sufficient when navigating across the globe. The is a true “Overland Range Rover”. This car was built with only one intention in mind: To travel from Switzerland to the Artic Cape, through Siberia, to England and then back to Switzerland, a 24,000 km trip! Nothing was left to chance during this conversion. Lets run through the car’s attributes from front to back in order not to overlook anything. The front sports a metal bumper with an inbuilt winch, improved cooling, extra illumination and headlight guards. The bonnet was given a special coat of black paint to prevent reflections. The 6.2 Litre V8 breaths through two snorkels on each side of the cabin. These snorkels reduce the amount of dust sucked into the engine and allows for deep water transversal. The car stands on General Grabber All Terrain tyres with good profiles. Underneath the car and the bodywork have been treated with a high strength paint giving extra protection from gravel impact. Naturally the car has been given protective plating to the engine, cooling system and differentials. On the roof there is extra lighting, a solar panel, spare wheel and a roof box. On both sides special frame have been mounted with metal tracks, extra diesel tanks, a shovel and extra suitcases. At the rear we see the plastic bumper being replaced with a much sturdier metal one also improving the amount of clearance when at an angle. The latter is also significantly helped by the presence of a so-called lift kit meaning that ground clearance is never a problem. The standard rear glass window has been replaced with a synthetic extra insulating window. There is also addition lighting at the rear just in. case one needs to work on the car in the middle of nowhere in the dark. Inside the car the same amount of attention to detail is evident. Whilst internal space is at a premium, with smart division maximal use has been made of it. There is sleeping space for two adults, a kitchen and more than ample storage under the bed and in the storage cupboards. The quality is second to none. Furthermore the car has been very well insulated and supplied with extra dashboard meters to monitor the car’s vital organs when driving. The stand by heater keeps cold nights at bay. The cable loom has been fully adjusted to cope with all the car’s additional paraphernalia such as the solar panel inverter and extra batteries. All the electrics have been properly fused and is easy to work in case of a minor calamity occurring. It is quite rightly a very special car. There isn’t any land journey imaginable you couldn’t undertake in this car. The car was converted by the same specialist responsible for the Swiss Camel trophy entry, proper and knowledgeable enthusiasts thus. This fact is exemplified even more so by the huge amount of documentation present. Absolutely every addition has been documented taking away any headaches one might encounter when it comes to repairing or maintaining the car. A small fortune of over € 100,000.- was invested. The car is still in top quality condition. The engine runs perfectly, the gear change is precise, the bodywork and underneath are rust-free and the interior is in wonderful condition. This car will offer you the opportunity to benefit from an ultimate labour of love. It matters not wether you plan to travel for months on end with your partner or just use it to go camping locally; this Range Rover is up to the task. Be assured your are prepared for all eventualities. It is quite likely you will enjoy getting there as much as being there as the journey is this Range Rover’s destination.

über Land Rover
Die robuste Geschichte von Land Rover, geboren aus dem Geist der Entdeckung und inspiriert vom legendären Jeep. Begeben wir uns auf eine Reise durch die Geschichte von Land Rover, verfolgen seine Entwicklung und die ikonischen Modelle, die sowohl Offroad-Gelände als auch städtische Landschaften erobert haben.

Akt 1: Die Geburt von Land Rover (1948)
In der Nachkriegszeit sah Rover die Notwendigkeit für ein vielseitiges Fahrzeug, das den Anforderungen des Lebens nach dem Krieg gewachsen war. Inspiriert vom Jeep konzipierten Maurice Wilks, der Chefdesigner von Rover, und sein Bruder Spencer, der Geschäftsführer von Rover, den ersten Land Rover. Auf der Amsterdam Motor Show 1948 vorgestellt, war der Series I Land Rover ein sofortiger Erfolg und punktete mit Einfachheit, Langlebigkeit und beispiellosen Offroad-Fähigkeiten.

Akt 2: Series Land Rover (1950er-1970er)
Die Series Land Rovers bildeten das Rückgrat von Land Rovers Modellpalette. Der Series II von 1958 und der Series III von 1971 verfeinerten das Design und führten mehr Annehmlichkeiten ein, wobei die Verpflichtung der Marke zu Offroad-Fähigkeiten erhalten blieb. Diese Modelle waren Arbeitstiere auf Bauernhöfen, in militärischen Einsätzen und bei abenteuerlichen Expeditionen.

Akt 3: Range Rover (1970)
Im Jahr 1970 erweiterte Land Rover seinen Horizont mit der Einführung des Range Rover. Die Kombination aus Luxus und Offroad-Fähigkeiten definierte eine neue Klasse von hochwertigen, geländegängigen Fahrzeugen. Sein Erfolg markierte den Beginn von Land Rovers Übergang von funktionalen Arbeitspferden zu Premium-Geländefahrzeugen.

Akt 4: Discovery und Defender (1980er-1990er)
Die Einführung des Land Rover Discovery im Jahr 1989 markierte den Vorstoß der Marke in familienorientierte SUVs, die Offroad-Fähigkeiten mit Onroad-Komfort verbanden. Inzwischen eroberte der kultige Land Rover Defender, der spirituelle Nachfolger der originalen Series Land Rovers, weiterhin die Herzen der Enthusiasten mit seinem robusten Design und unerschütterlichen Fähigkeiten.
