Land Rover : Range Rover Vogue EFI

This is an auction for a 1993 Range Rover Classic powered by a 3.9 EFI V8. The Classic bodywork has been replaced by a Traka kit which is produced by NCF Motors of Bishop Auckland, Yorkshire, England. The Traka bolts directly onto a Range Rover 100 inch chassis. It is lightweight and the roll cage is manufactured from 48mm BS 1387 Motor Sport Association approved tube. The whole front end with integral bull bar and galvanised steel bonnet pivots forward allowing excellent engine access. This all bolts onto the Range Rover chassis complete with galvanised side panels, galvanised inner arches and plastic mudguards.
CHASSIS: 1993 Range Rover 100 inch wheelbase. Front and rear overhangs removed. Chassis is perfect and has never been repaired. All suspension mounts remain standard Range Rover.
ENGINE: 3.9 EFI V8. 185 bhp at 4750rpm. 235 lb/ft or torque at 2600 rpm. Perfect working order. No oil loss or overheating. Excellent oil pressure. Just rebuilt with all gaskets and seals replaced. Heads slightly skimmed. New cam, hydraulic lifters, timing chain and sprockets. New valve springs. New plugs and leads. Vehicle has a top speed in excess of 100 MPH. I have a comprehensive service history for this vehicle.
SUSPENSION AND AXLES: Fully rebuilt front and rear axles. New, black teflon coated front swivels, gator protected. New polybushings. 4 X new springs, 4 X new shocks. Even though springs are standard height and loading they give a slightly stiffer ride due to the dramatic weight reduction over a standard Range Rover.
BRAKES: Standard Range Rover. Discs all round. Rebuilt calipers with new seals and stainless steel pistons. New pads. Stainless Goodridge hoses. New brake lines. New master cylinder and new servo.
WHEELS/TYRES: BF Goodrich All Terrains 33X12.5 R15. Spare is new with 13.5mm of tread. the rest showing 12mm of tread. Black, steel modular rims.
GERABOX: Permanent 4WD with limited slip centre diff. 4 speed ZF automatic. High and low ratio. Completely standard and free from any defects. All seals and gaskets replaced. New transfer chain. New filter and fluids.
STEERING: LHD and power assisted. I spent this Winter converting it from RHD. Quite a simple job thanks to the Land Rover construction. Light and precise at all road speeds.
FUEL SYSTEM: The vehicle was converted to run on just propane in 2000 and ran perfectly until 2014. The Euro spec system would not pass B.C. inspection so I had to change it back to petrol. Two new 15 gallon fuel cells. New high pressure fuel pump. All new fuel lines, filter and 8 fully reconditioned, flow matched Bosch injectors.
QUESTIONS: I'm sure there will be many. I have owned this vehicle since 2006 and imported it into Canada from the UK in 2008. Vehicle is registered and on the road in B.C.. Due to the bodywork change I had a Structural Integrity Report which includes a steering alignment report. It also had to pass a safety inspection which covers lighting, seat belts, brakes etc. Auction is for the vehicle as is.Vehicle is located at V1E 0B2. B.C. Canada and I welcome any inspection or test drive. If you are serious about this vehicle you must do your own homework. I will help with all shipping, collection and delivery instructions. It might look like a child's toy but it is a very large and powerful vehicle. Please see the last two photos next to a four door Jeep for scale purposes. Range Rovers are incredibly tough vehicles and the 100" wheelbase is ideal for off road use. Not too long as to hinder off road progress yet long enough to be stable at highway speeds. I have built many over the years and even entered another 100" Range Rover in various Dakar rallies. If you would like to see and hear this vehicle running please search YouTube for a "1993 Land Rover Range Rover Dune Buggy." If I have failed to answer your questions please do not hesitate to contact me via eBay or Tel: 250 833 5550. Thanks, Steven.
