We have a client selling a 2008 Range Rover with a great body that was flooded and is not in running order. The vehicle has a very clean body and interior, and many new modules and parts. It’s white with beige leather. Odometer shows 43,700 miles. The truck was manufactured in June 2008, so it’s a very late 2008 - almost a 2009. Asking $11,900 or best offer. Subject to approval by the owner - the car is at Robison Service and we are his agent in this sale.
From what I can see the body on this truck is in great shape. It looks all original to me and it’s free of damage with the exception of some minor bumper chips. The car has good wheels and tires. It’s all stock.
The interior is nice and clean though there is some corrosion visible under seats and in corners. There is no significant wear or damage to any of the seating surfaces.
Someone bought this car and tried to fix it before being overwhelmed by the job. They purchased a new engine control unit ($2,000), a new body control unit ($2,000) and a new immobilizer. The car was also fitted with a new instrument cluster from another vehicle. All those parts function but are now coded with a different VIN which would have to be cleared before they could be used in a vehicle. Windows, door locks, and all the hood latches, stuff like that work. The vehicle can be locked up with the key and the windows are closed, so it's secure and watertight if parked outside. All the body sheet metal looks really good - doors don't have any damage. Fenders, quarters, etc all good. Windshield even looks new. Complex electronics is mostly inoperative. The car was flooded to at least dash top level.
The seller purchased 8 more used modules (radio, transfer case, and other systems) which may or may not be usable in another 2006-2009 Range Rover. These are included with the vehicle, along with most of the original modules that were swapped out. We do not have the original flooded ECU or the original instrument cluster. The cluster in the car seems to work but I do not know of a way to recode miles and VIN for use in another vehicle.
This would be a great truck for someone who has a rolled or heavily crashed Range Rover. It’s got most of what you need to put a rig like that back on the road. If you have an early L3222 Range Rover I think the front and rear of this vehicle could be used to update a 2003-5 truck but you should check an interchange guide for specifics. I offer the car as it, as water damaged salvage.
If you are a body man you know the value of the parts on this truck. Flooding can ruin mechanicals and electrics but the body, sheet metal, plastic, and all the sealed systems tend to be unaffected. On a vehicle like this, that adds up to a lot. A good nose or tail is close to ten grand for these cars, and when you add an interior, radiator, AC condenser, wheels, and whatever else you can use the truck is a bargain for someone like that. All the plastic trim is complete and undamaged. The seats look near-new and they have the fancier contrast piping.
According to Land Rover this car was last serviced in August 2012 at 43,000 miles. That's the last recorded mileage and the last time it was known to be on the road. It was sold to our client – with water damage – in the fall of 2013.
The car is available for inspection at Robison Service during regular working hours. We're in Springfield, MA. I have photos which tell its story - you are buying a chassis, body and interior. This is not a car to be fixed up and driven.
This vehicle rolls, but does not start or run. It will have to be towed out of here. You can shift it into park to secure it on a trailer. If you want to inspect the car, please call John Robison at 413-785-1665 or email robison@robisonservice.com.
We are a Massachusetts licensed motor vehicle dealer and repair facility. Buyer will owe 6.25% MA sales tax, and there is a $129 title and document processing fee. Please note that you will owe MA sales tax even if you ship the truck out of state because it's sold off our lot here, and must be picked up in person. It's not a mail-order item. The only exception to this sales tax rule is for licensed dealers who present a valid, current dealer license and state issued tax certificate.
