1980 Land Rover Range Rover Classic 3.5 V8 for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1980 Land Rover Range Rover Classic 3.5 V8 is a used car showing 37,256 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Sahara Dust with a Palomino Beige interior.

This early two-door Range Rover went new to a European customer, Mr Bressanelli, whom the seller links to Ferrari in Verona and Modena, and the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust archive, together with former owners, has helped piece together its story; a Heritage Certificate confirms it.

Italian craftsmen restored it with the body off the chassis, rebuilding it to Land Rover's original specification. The Sahara Dust paint is fresh, the Palomino Beige velour has been renewed, and the panel fit is precise. The V8 has been overhauled and runs smoothly, the gearbox shifts cleanly and the clutch is light, so the seller likens buying it to buying a new Range Rover of the period.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Range Rover 3.5 V8 uses the 3,528 cc Rover V8 of Buick origin, detuned for off-road use, rated at 135 hp (101 kW) and a top speed of about 153 km/h, with the LT95 four-speed manual gearbox with a two-speed transfer box and permanent four-wheel drive.

FAQ

This Land Rover Range Rover Classic in the European market

Is this Land Rover priced above or below the European market?

At €69,500, it sits below the median of €98,500 for the 296 Land Rover advertised in Europe in 2026. 24% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Land Rover be bought in the Netherlands and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included and not reclaimable: sold under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this Land Rover Range Rover Classic cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €15,152 in the United Kingdom, excluding options. This car is advertised at €69,500, 359% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1980 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.

How does the mileage of this Land Rover compare?

37,256 km recorded, against a median of 9,986 km across the Land Rover advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the higher-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Which other Land Rover are priced closest to this one?

a 2018 car in Spain at €69,900, and a 2026 car in the Netherlands at €69,950. Observed in 2026. Comparing them means putting model year, mileage, factory options and the VAT basis side by side before the price itself.

Gallery Aaldering, a professional dealer in Brummen, Netherlands. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Land Rover Range Rover Classic be inspected before purchase?
