About this 1988 Land Rover Range Rover Base 4 Door

1988 Range Rover 40th Anniversary Model

This 1988 Range Rover 40th Anniversary Edition has been in the same family since new and remains a well-loved, adventure-ready classic. While retaining its original paint—now showing signs of clear coat wear—it has been thoughtfully upgraded for both performance and durability.

Under the hood, the original engine was replaced in 2000 with a powerful 4.6L V8 (from RPI, England), delivering strong and reliable performance. The suspension has been modified for improved off-road capability, and both front and rear bumpers have been replaced with rugged Safari Gard units. A hydraulic winch further enhances its trail-readiness.

Despite its age, this Range Rover runs exceptionally well and remains free of oil leaks—an impressive feat for a classic British 4x4. Whether for off-road excursions or as a unique vintage SUV, this Rover is a true enthusiast’s machine with a storied history.
