Default 2005 LR3 in good shape - UAE

Previous LR was a 1990 Range Rover Classic - real beauty, one of the vehicles I've missed the most after selling.

So, now just picked a cheap 2005 LR3 with the Jaguar V8, NAS, with 155k miles, and in really good shape!

Some things that need attention, but I like fixing old cars, so I'm happy.

And it also prolly holds the world record for the worst cracked dash ever...

But mechanics (electronics) and interior are excellent 8)

LOOL Thanks! I know... I had half an idea to preserve it and fill the cracks with fake molten gold, like a prestigious piece of art... but then common sense kicked back in and I'll fill, sand, and spray-paint in black I'll post up before-after pics.
