Basic Information & Background
A fully specced Range Rover Westminster TBV8 2012, the last year of the L322 model that still shares great many with the original. Lots of modern creature comforts packaged in a timeless design.
With Santorini Black Metallic exterior and Ebony Black leather interior, it is both classic and stylish.
The Westminster model is further characterized by a “Noble”-light finish on the front grille and side vents as well as Titan Silver on the lower splitter and fog light-frames.
This car has only had 2 users since new and was imported to Sweden from Germany in 2021 by the current owners who searched long before finding this very example
The 4.4 l diesel V8 delivers 313 hp and a full 700 NM through the 8-speed automatic ZF-transmission, only available on the diesel model. This makes the driving experience relaxed but strong in all situations and despite its high weight, mixed consumption stays around 1.2l per 10km.
Active anti-roll bars provide better comfort at higher speeds and minimize rocking and heeling. The air suspension ensures that you float over the uneven surfaces where a Range Rover is at home
Equipment specification

The 360 camera needs to be replaced with the left front lens.
The right front lens has a crack in the side.
