When the Range Rover was launched in 1970 it immediately drew attention.
Its elegant but practical design mixed with exceptional off-road
handling, as well as comfort on metalled roads, seemed to introduce a
whole new way of driving. The Louvre museum in Paris exhibited it as a
model of industrial design. Fifty years later, the Range Rover continues
to be in demand. In this comprehensive book, Rover expert James Taylor
covers all of the Range Rover models from the 1970s 'classic' to the
fifth generation Range Rover of today. The book covers the remarkable
engineering achievements of Land Rover in developing a vehicle just as
at home on rugged hillsides as it was on the streets of Chelsea. He
follows the developments that made the Range Rover ever more in demand
as a luxury status symbol. This book will appeal to all Range Rover
enthusiasts, offering concise but comprehensive coverage of one of the
most admired British cars.
