The vendor informs us that this remarkably original example presents in highly honest condition throughout, showing just 47,000 miles from new and having been enjoyed by only two former keepers. Finished in a smart silver over black leather interior, it retains an appealing level of originality, including factory wheels, trim and switchgear. The cabin remains notably clean and well-preserved, with minimal wear to the seats, steering wheel and interior surfaces, while the exterior presents straight, tidy panels with only light age-related markings commensurate with careful long-term use.

We are told it performs exactly as expected, starting readily and driving smoothly, with the vendor reporting strong mechanical health and no dashboard warning lights during normal operation. The often-neglected areas such as air suspension performance, electrical functions and drivetrain operation are said to remain in good working order. Accompanying the vehicle is a file of booklets and documents, including the handbook pack and evidence of regular upkeep over the years, underscoring a life of considerate, low-mileage ownership.

Introduced as one of the most capable and versatile vehicles of its era, the model combined a robust chassis with refined road manners, impressive towing ability and a practical seven-seat configuration. Its blend of comfort, utility and genuine off-road ability made it a favourite among families and outdoor enthusiasts alike, while examples with low mileage and minimal ownership history are increasingly sought-after.
