The Range Rover Story (Story of)

by Giles Chapman (Author)

Synopsis

The Range Rover was introduced in 1970 and immediately turned the world of luxury cars on its head. Big, powerful and stylish, it was the first four-wheel drive car that was as happy cruising on tarmac as it was tackling rocky terrain. The British icon set the template that others followed, and the Range Rover was a massive success. Now in its fourth incarnation, it continues to set the benchmark by which all other luxury SUV rivals are judged, while the name is now found on a range of prestigious, versatile vehicles. The wildly successful 2011 Evoque saw half a million cars sold by 2015. Now the very earliest cars are amongst the hottest classics around, with values soaring to GBP100,000 for top examples of the much-admired, two-door original.
