I'm not telling ! (the wife may read this) it's been off the road for 10 years but runs

I'm intending to pull it up to the standard of the 3.9 !

I wouldn't be any use...all I'd do is stroke it and dribble (the car that is you dirty minded people!!

)

Can I ask a silly question, with regards to the 2 door classic had it not already been out of production for some years when this model was released? Or could you buy a "normal" 2 door softdash?

Cant be many CSK's left now! Great project!

odyssey · Mar 20, 2015

Lovely - what number is it?

I assume you've seen this - range rover :: csk

2 door production halted in the mid/late 80's (86 or 87 I think) the CSK model was the only later 2 door model.

Yes it had, from what i understand, Land Rover had a couple of hundred 2 door bodyshells left in 'stock', so the Charles Spencer King (CSK) basically had the new stuff put in the door body, with a tweaked engine with only 200 made. a few have been broken up and rolled/destroyed and i count about 20 that have been exported. it was the quickest range rover produced at the time.

Brilliant! Yeah I read a website with alot of interesting history I had no idea they even existed until today. Fantastic machine well worth saving then... you;ll just have to find a janspeed rover v8 turbo kit now and really make it into the fastest classic!

Zen might have a thing to say about that

Originality matters with this one.
Anyone want to hazard a guess on value - restored?
Got to be 5 figures and appreciating fast

richardthestag · Mar 20, 2015

not sold yet but yes, wonder if this is a bubble that might burst? but values have been creeping north for some time now

1991 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER CSK Auto | eBay

FOR SALE: Range Rover CSK V8 1991 | eBay

does for the value

75K advert says it has been refitted with the 4.6 litre engine, but the plenum says 3.9?

Maybe they fitted a 4.6 block and kept the 3.9 plenum for authenticity??
